When you say "you provided it for her" do you mean that you bought it for her from the Amazon Kindle Store? Is there any reason that she couldn't have done this herself?

I haven't seen "proper" ligatures on any reader (other than ones which have separate character codes, such as "æ"). Personally it doesn't bother me in the slightest.

EDIT: Actually I've just read on another thread that the forthcoming ADE 1.8 does carry out ligature substitution, so "fl" would be replaced by the "fl" ligature, for example. I think, though, that this would just apply to reading books on the desktop version of ADE; I don't think the book would be sent to the reading device like that.
