A 6" dob for around $300 which gives you some change to get a few books and star charts to help her along. Its not big, its a necessary size. Don't be put off by it. Anything smaller will be a big disappointment in viewing. A 6" can give excellent views of the planets and is what I would consider the minimum for serious planetary viewing.
