Thank you for your inputs. I have found a Kobo Aura 2 on eBay. I’ve put a bright yellow case with floral stickers on it so it stands out and is easier to hold. We have loaned our first book from the local library, enlarged the font and set the front(back)light. She now has it - first user testing in progress!
All she has to do is open the case and tap to turn page. I do suspect there will be some touchscreen mishaps…
For context, she is 93 years old and has never owned (nor had an interest in) a mobile phone, so this is quite a big thing to get used to. Let’s see how it goes!

Matt
One thing to make the text better looking is to install the Better Hyphenation Dictionary. Install the US-EN one and it will help reduce the gaps.
