she may or may not have disconnected the kindle without actually going through the disconnect routine for connected mass storage devices.
could she have a dude battery and where can she get another or is this something more serious
any help welcome
I have had a problem in the past resetting. The procedure that finally worked for me was to turn off the switch on my Kindle, then turn it back on and use a toothpick to press the reset hole under the back cover. I then waited about a minute and switched it off and then on again and it worked.

Hope this helps!
