However, we have said to her to let us know if she wants to try something else.
One advantage of an e-ink reader is the battery life. I can plug it in for her so she only has to unplug it (she might have a problem inserting the USB charger).

The iPad's charging connector is easier to use the a micro-USB connector. I know eink readers last longer on a charge then the iPad. But with the New iPad, the screen is very clear and looks better with fonts as larger as you have set on the Kindle. Seriously, if you have access to an iPad, let her try it. You might be surprised.
