When I first set mine up (I have over 700 ebook personal documents in the Amazon cloud) I sent mine one collection at a time, that way I could add all the books to a collection in one go by pressing the Collection folder and choosing Add/Remove items, you can then tick each book and work through the pages if you have the list in Recent order. That should make setting up her collections quicker and easier. Then you only have to add each new book in as she buys them.

Manually creating and organizing collections on a kindle is not as difficult or as time consuming and some on here would tell you.
But when you email to a Kindle, you get Mobi format and sometimes that's doesn't do.

Collections will be a pain if you want to put on a lot of books in one go because you then have to manually deal with collections.

But dealing with Collections on a Kobo is as easy as typing the name of the collection and sending to the Reader from Calibre.
