I have an idea, but I'd like to tap into the knowledge of the mobileread community.

Truthfully, I"d give her lots of choices. Put just one or two of each on the reader. Let her tell you which ones she really likes, and would like to read more of. The more choices, the better the chances she'll stay an interested reader. Is she an advanced reader? The American Girls collection is good. Does she like mystery or sci fi? You can always go to Amazon.com, click on 'books, then click on "childrens books" then go by age and it will give you lots of options. I know you can't download books for your reader from there, but it will give you ideas. Also, check with her teacher for more titles, series, etc that are popular with girls her age. Most of all, talk with her and let her choose. Sorry to go on and on, but this is a pet project of mine. Keep those kids reading! (and don't forget to make her memorize her multiplication tables.)
