E-books and paper books are not a substitute but complementary

Paper books can better protect children's vision than e-books. And e-books are difficult to reproduce the color of paper books, layout, size and even texture, and paper books can bring intuitive feelings to children, many children's books and e-books can not achieve interactive effects.

People need to bring a lot of things every day, an e-book reader will obviously bring a lot of trouble. Although the latest e-book reader has greatly improved the life time, reading experience is also very good, but for just reading in their spare time to use mobile phone users, does not require additional pay, at the same time reading experience in most under the environment of the mobile phone is not bad.
