Today’s list of free eBooks for kids is not overwhelmingly long yet has a number of books that I know you will be interested in. Many of you will be excited to see several picture puzzle books, another Bunny in the House book, and some novels for older readers. I also am thrilled that one of my fellow bloggers Susan Case who blogs at Kindergarten Basics is offering her new eBook for free today! I read the first few chapters, and I think that if you are a parent or teacher you will enjoy reading about some of Susan’s experiences (like the child who brought a canary in his backpack to school.)
Welcome to all my new readers. Take a minute and read through these important notes before you check out today’s list of free eBooks:
- Don’t forget to check prices before downloading. These eBooks typically will remain free for only a short period of time.
- You can read a Kindle eBook on non-Amazon devices by downloading their free app unto your PC or i-pad.
- Although, I try to screen as much content as I can, I am not able to fully read and screen each book. This article reflects my opinion based on what I have seen. Download and share these books with your children at your own risk.
- If you want to get these lists while the books are still free, be sure to subscribe via my RSS feed for instant updates. Email subscribers will receive one email a day between 5-7 pm EST.

Some of the best kids’ eBooks available for free today are:
Kindergarten: Tattle-Tales, Tools, Tactics, Triumphs, and Tasty Treats for Teachers and Parents by Susan Case
Here is Susan’s new eBook that I mentioned above. The first few chapters have great tips for teachers and funny stories for parents and kids. In just the couple pages that I read, Susan has already shared about a canary stuffed in a backpack, lost tarantula, and more. The chapters are short and easy to read quickly.
Spot Penny the Penguin and Company: A Hidden Picture Book by Christie Collins
Christie Collins has made two of her popular hidden picture eBooks available today for free. These books have easy puzzles for young children and are only a couple pages long. Be sure to download them if you have some traveling ahead of you this summer.
A Horse Called September by Anne Digby
I haven’t read this novel for children, but when I see reviewers excited about a reprint from their children I get excited too! Many of the reviewers say that this book about friendship and horses was a favorite that they still remember vividly.
You can see the rest of my free eBook list here on Amazon: Free Kids’ Picture Books and Novels
Note: The end of my list contains a couple books that became free later this morning (too late for me to read yet), but I placed them on the list so that you would know that they are available.
Thank you for reading today. I am excited that this week the No Twiddle Twaddle page on Facebook is edging up close to 500, we are almost up to 300 subscribers via RSS feed and email as well. When I started my blog, I had a goal of reaching a 100 fans on my Facebook page by the end of the year. As you can imagine, I’m so excited to see this blog grow over my expectations in the last couple of weeks. Thank you!
If you haven’t already, I would love for you to pop by and check out Make and Takes for Storybook Summer,

The spot book has gone down really well! I am also still been asked to read Who said Quack! That is great. Had a few problems this week can you help? we took the ipad on a picnic to read some of our downloaded books and the glare was awful on the screen any tips to stop this? Also some of the ebooks come up with an error message when I try to get them again it says that I already have brought them. I have tried on the ipad to press retry download and it does not work
gutted as it happened on the wendy pig one.
Thanks, Amy. I’m so glad that you are enjoying your books! The only answer I know for glare is to mess with your brightness setting or buy an anti-glare screen protector. I have an original Kindle which is much better in sunlight (but of course since it is only black and white, it doesn’t work well for picture books). Are these books that you are getting the error message for ones that you have already downloaded or new ones that you haven’t downloaded yet? Sometimes books appear on the list a second time, and since I always have new readers I will list them again if they haven’t been on my list in a couple of days. Have you tried searching your device for the books? I use a Kindle Fire instead of the Kindle app, so it may be the app has a glitch that I haven’t experienced.
Thanks for the quick reply am going to see about getting an anti glare screen protector as these books are going down well! The books that I have the error message on are ones that have not yet down loaded the error occurs in the download process
Not to worry though I have loads to keep us going. Off to look at today’s freebies.
That is weird about the error message. I hope that the screen protectors work for you!
