Parents: Kindle FreeTime with borrowed library books works perfectly!!!
Amazon help pages actually tell you that you can't use borrowed library e-books with the children's FreeTime feature that let's you track the amount of time they read each day (see attached image). In fact, even some customer service representatives tell you it can't be done. Luckily, it can....and it makes for a wonderful combination for parents who want to track their kids' reading while still taking advantage of free library loans. Here are the steps after having checked out the book: 1. Go to "Manage Your Content and Devices" 2. Click on the "Actions" button (labeled "...") next to the library-borrowed book. 3. Choose "Manage Family Library" 4. A small dialogue box should pop up with your child's Freetime profile. Click the "Add to Library" button next to it. 5. Sync the Paperwhite....and the book shows up in their Freetime account! I've confirmed this with a borrowed e-book on my son's Paperwhite. Now Amazon needs to update their help pages and give these instructions.
