[LM_NET] Target: Reading paper books vs. ebooks

[Lisa Gonzalez <lgonzalez@VCS.NET>]

Hello all,

I remember reading/hearing something about how physically holding a book is 
important to children's development as readers.  Does that ring a bell for anyone?  
I'd like to review some research related to children actually holding books versus 
reading books on the computer screen.  I've done some preliminary searching, but 
I'm wondering if you can give me some guidance as to major studies/authors in this 
area.

Thanks!
