There are not as many options as with Kindle Unlimited, and in a lot of cases you'll see both Unlimited and Prime options lumped together, so you'll have to look closely to find the free ones. If you already pay for a Prime account, you're eligible for some free books through Prime Reading.

There's a 30-day free trial you should take advantage of. You can only choose from the Unlimited catalog, but there are millions of titles there, including audiobooks and magazines. You may want to subscribe to Kindle Unlimited for $10 a month.

You may be surprised at the cost of some Kindle books (I was), but there are ways to save some money while reading as much as your heart desires. If you already own this model, you don't have to rush to upgrade. We think it's still a fine Kindle for kids to enjoy. ★ Cheaper alternative: The 10th-generation Kids Kindle ($110) is still available for $50 less if you don't need waterproofing. If you're going to get your kid an entertainment device, an ebook reader that doesn't have a browser or access to social media is probably as safe as you can get. If your kid smashes it just once, you get your money back. (You can access the same platform across other Amazon devices too, if you have a Fire Tablet or an Echo.) It also comes with a case and a two-year no-questions-asked replacement guarantee. Like prior kids models, you'll get a year's subscription to Amazon Kids+, which is a kid-friendly content library that allows for parental controls. We didn't test the new Kids model, but we did try the Signature Edition and are confident this one will hold up too. If you have an accident-prone kid, or one who just likes to read by the pool or in the tub, it's a good idea to spend the extra $50 on this version. It's also waterproof (with an IPX8 rating)-standard for Paperwhites, but a first for kids. Like the others, it has a bigger and sleeker screen with smaller bezels and more lighting options. The 2021 Paperwhites include a Kids Edition.

If you mostly listen to audiobooks, you may want to go for the Signature, since those tend to take up more room. That's a big difference, but you can still read and store a lot of books with 8 gigabytes (around 5,000). The Signature has 32 gigabytes of storage and the Standard has 8 gigs. Its faster page-turn rate means there's no delay while you read. The screens are brighter overall at their max and now have adjustable warm lighting, but only the Signature can auto-adjust that brightness to your surroundings-we think that should be standard across all models. We tried the Signature Edition ( 8/10, WIRED Recommends), but all three have bigger, 6.8-inch screens with smaller bezels. The step-up, waterproof ereader went from one to three, and the devices rival the more expensive Oasis. We think most people will like the newest Paperwhites the best. Subscriptions help fund the work we do every day.
