For the love of reading and writing
Read and write comfortably on the largest Kindle display. See, hear, and feel your thoughts meet the page with every stroke of the Premium Pen across the textured screen. Writing on Kindle Scribe feels like writing on paper, and with Active Canvas, you can create space for your notes in books. Plus, import and mark up documents and PDFs.
New notebook-inspired design
Feel like you're writing on a sheet of paper with the redesigned flush-front display and uniform white borders.
Introducing Active Canvas
Start writing directly on the book page and Active Canvas will automatically create space for your notes, adjusting the text to fit alongside them. Now, you never have to cut a thought short. Your notes are tied to the text, so they're always in view and in context, even if you change font sizes.
Every note organised
Choose from different templates to take meeting notes, create to-do lists, and journal distraction-free. With the built-in notebook, you can keep all your writing organised on one device. You can also convert to text and share via email with your contacts.
Your next great read awaits
Finding new stories has never been easier. The Kindle Store offers easy access to an unmatched library of content with bestsellers, more than 15 million titles, and Kindle Exclusives you won't find anywhere else.
Got you covered
Designed for Kindle Scribe, these slim, form-fitting covers attach securely and fold into two reading positions. They put your Kindle to sleep when closed and wake upon opening, so it's easy to get back to reading and writing.

This is called your duty free allowance and personal goods concession. It is important to review these for any purchases you make on The Mall.
Your duty free allowance entitles you to bring into New Zealand the following quantities of alcohol products free of customs duty and GST provided you are over 17 years of age. You do need to be 18 years or over to purchase.
