Wa Alaikum Assalam wa Rahmatullah

that's a difficult question brother, can you tell us more about the old lady, her religion, what she likes, is she liberal or conservative, old fashioned or modern etc?

Don't give her a translation of the meanings of the Holy Qur'an straight away as it may be too concentrated for her as yet.

Give her something that tells her the basics of Islam in a nice gentle way. Harun Yahya has written several books on basic Islamic subjects that are good for this.

remember that if she comes to Islam through your help it is a blessing both for you and her so be thoughtful and patient about this situation, show her the beautiful nature of Islam and focus on the most important thing - that there is only one God and we call Him Allah, but He has many other beautiful names to and we call Him He but really He is far beyond being male or female -

Be very very gentle and considerate with your dawa as potential Muslims can be frightened and put off by some careless comment that you haven't even realized would have any effect upon them. Put yourself in her shoes so that you can know what to say and what not to say - there is no need to teach her everything about Islam straight away - just the important and beautiful ones if she continue to show interest.
