I recommend the Kobo for your daughter. I own a Kobo myself. There is a *slight* learning curve how to buy books and load them into the reader, but within an hour, I was very comfortable using the Kobo and the Kobo store. You do need to install Adobe software, but it's fairly easy to do, and I was set up pretty quickly and buying books. If you do buy the Kobo, and run into trouble, feel free to email me (there's a contact form on my website,
www.DanielArenson.com), and I can help you.
