While you are reading a book, tap anywhere on the page to reveal a menu across both the top and the bottom of the iPad's display.

The bottom menu is a scroll bar that helps you zip across pages. This tool is great if you are resuming a book you've already started from another source, like a paper copy of the book. The Kindle app should resume where you left off even if you read it on another device, so you shouldn't need to skip around continue reading from a book you started on your Kindle.

The top menu presents several configuration options. The most important is the font button, which is the button with the 'Aa' letters. Through this sub-menu, you can change the font style, the size, the background color of the page, how much white space to leave in the margins, and even change the brightness of the display.

The search button, which is a magnifying glass, will let you search the book. The button with three horizontal lines is the menu button. Use this button to go to a specific page, listen to the audio companion, or read through the table of contents.
