If they know how to do (rigorous) proofs, then Spivak would be good. Otherwise it would be far too advanced. It's essentially an introduction to analysis.

That's fair. I don't really know what counts as advanced anymore. There just aren't that many books on theoretical math that aren't "graduate level" (which is way scarier than it sounds) -- Spivak was my Real Analysis 101 book as a freshman math major.
Spivak at least has the nice property that it doesn't assume you know much.
