I like these suggestions. Along the Pooh line, perhaps Mary Poppins? The Betsy-Tacy books?
Given that dementia sufferers can remember early years better than yesterday, perhaps old favorites from her childhood, if she can remember them or you know them?
But otherwise, I’m going to suggest picture books. I think there are many amazingly sophisticated (at the picture book level) picture books these days with fantastic artwork. You could read the text and discuss the pictures and that might draw her in. As an aside, dementia sufferers can enjoy coloring books, too.
