I would prefer a kobo but open to other brands.

I suspect that a 6 inch ereader is not really going to cut it for most picture books and comics. The KA1 might suffice. You could download a few books from the library and see.
However, the Onyx Note 10.3" ereader which should be available in the next month or so would probably be ideal for that type of reading. The problem is the price. If it is just for reading while at home, it might be fine in the hands of a 7 year old. To carry about daily, maybe not so.
