free e reader books?

I've finally bought myself an e reader, (Kobo mini, on offer for £29.99 at Wh Smiths) i know we've had threads about free e reader books before but i can't seem to find it, can anyone point me in the right direction please? i've already read Tales of Peter Rabbit and Alice's adventures in Wonderland

oh and i can't find a sleeve in a shop small enough to cover the kobo mini, the ones i have seen online cost a fair bit, any suggestions? (i could make one i suppose but i'm just being lazy)

Just google 'free ebooks' and you are spoilt for choice.

I was going to give you links but there are too many.

Flashy, Amazon has a good few free downloads...not sure if the Kobo takes the amazon format.
They also have some very cheap downloads too some as low as 20 pence.
Enjoy your e-reader. I never thought I would say this, but I just love mine.
(I still buy real books though as well)

What dimensions does this thing have? Would a cheap slimline version of a laptop case/sleeve not do it?

Its only about 5/6 inch DiGy (less of the smutty thoughts please), I think I'll buy a laptop sleeve from the poundshop and cut it down/sew it up to make a small one
