Browsing the Kids section at kobobooks finds some definitely miscategorized stuff.

You'd have to go the sideloading through Adobe Digital Editions route for non-Kobo books.
Is a Kobo account separate from an Adobe ID? I assume she'll need the latter for Adobe DRM'd ePubs.

Waterstones is ePub with Adobe DRM, so that should be fine.
