Is she on Grid or List view? Personally, I don't like grid view.
It takes a while to get used to the new interface. Everything is hidden in their own pockets of settings.
As for complaining to Amazon... well, I doubt they'd revert back the old interface. And no amount of "complaining" we do would change that. Unless it's something that could potentially break the device, we are of a very vocal minority when it comes to these issues.
Unless there's a jailbreak that comes out, best you could do is learn how to navigate the new UI and teach your mother.

Thank you for responding so quickly. The problem is with the new interface of the library: before the pages were passed as if they were pages of a book, now it is a vertical bar that is difficult for it, it is in the list view and when you move the bar or your finger down it always it gets to the bottom of the list all at once and can't see the ones in the middle.
I will follow your advice and practice a lot to be able to teach my mother. And for me the new home cover is like being in a bookstore full of ads, if the kindle is mine I don't see why I have to put up with its advertising I wish I could remove it but they already said no here. Amazon increasingly complicates the use of the kindle, adds more steps to be able to do the most elementary things
. It's a pity that there is no jailbreak yet and that we are a minority is true, many people just read and that's it and they don't even know caliber.
On the subway, 2 different people have asked me how they put books in the kindle (I always read on the bus) because they bought it but they thought that it brought the books included, and that on Amazon they don't find mucho free content in Spanish, only classics . No literary novelty.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry
