Gnome office is a light weight suite containing Abiword , Abiword , Gnumeric and Evolution.
Abiword is a lightweight word processor and it has a builtin spellchecker and grammar checker unlike openoffice where you have to install a plugin. It can open MS word documents. It has been selected for one latop a child project.
Gnumeric is a counterpart of MS excel for spread sheet applications.
Evince: It can open pdf, dvi and djvu documents. It can open e-comics also.
Evolution: It can be used as email client for pop3 and imap.
There's a glom also for designing databases. It must be noted it has tomboy also but mono ( MS .net framework) is being removed by many distro like fedora so I don't think it will be appropriate to mention them.
