I'd say if their starting from scratch then get a text book or a dictionary and build up some understanding of vocabulary, context, and basic grammar before trying to read story books and such.
This would probably work.. it's like learning a language at school, they usually give you a book to read and before you know it.. you can speak a language that can make your life different^^!

wo jia you ni ge ren ?
if you understand that lol, good!

I also suggest you start her on the pronunciation of things.. vowels, items and alphabet.

Goodluck!
