I can second the recommendation of Pogue's book as the mentor of two
people very much like the one you describe.

I think David Pogue's Mac OS X: Panther Edition, the Missing Manual
(O'Reilly) might be a help to you. It's over 700 pages in length, but
quoting from the back cover, here's how it starts:
"Getting started: The early chapters demystify the Dock, windows, and
the unfamilar Mac OS X folder structure - - an ideal introduction."
Here is a partial list of early major topics from the table of
contents:
Folders and Windows
Organizing Your Stuff
Dock, Desktop, and Toolbar
etc., etc....probably much more than you want to know.
This book is available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and any online tech
bookstore, as well.
If she wanted to, on her own, "get up to speed," are their any
learning resources on the web to get someone who doesn't even know
what you mean when you say "The Finder" up to a new level of computer
fluency... I'm not talking about making this level of newbie a
programmer, just conversant in how to use the machine works,
navigate, etc.
I'm familiar with the Mac's own "For New Computer Users" in the
help... but am looking for other similar resources as well.
