chartpolski 27,494 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 My daughter bought me an E-reader for Xmas. Now, I'm an old tradistionalist, but this thing is great !!! First book I read on it was Jack Londons "Call of the wild", perhaps the best dog book ever ! Theres pleanty more books built into it, but I will figure out how to download from the pc !
