I'm just a violinist, so I can't offer any specifics of guitars, but here is my suggestion. Like nearly everything else, you often get what you pay for. Don't buy the cheapest thing you can find, especially on-line, unless it is something someone is selling used and they don't know what they have and you do. Go to a reputable local music store if you can and have them show you a few. You don't need to buy the most expensive, but go for a brand name that sounds familiar (Yamaha, Fender, etc.). They can even help you make sure it is set up for her. At the very least, you can try some of the more expensive guitars and then have a comparison (it doesn't cost anything to look!). Even if you aren't a musician yourself, the differences in materials and craftsmanship are often very evident.
The biggest difference for a beginner is playability. The cheaper instruments aren't going to sound as good as the more expensive instruments because they aren't made with the same quality materials, but there is a vast difference in playability. Look for good quality tuners so it will stay in tune and make sure it is set up well enough to be playable. I would suggest an acoustic guitar with some light or extra light gauge strings to start out with. You can probably get something like I describe for about $200.
