Step 1: Unplug the device from the charger
Step 2: Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds
Step 3: Release the power button, then press and release the power button normally, the Kindle should wake up
Step 4: If the Kindle does not wake up, find an alternate charger or go down to Radio Shack or Staples and get a new charger
Step 5: Plug in the new Charger to the Kindle for 12 hours when done leave the Kindle plugged into the charger
Step 6: While the Kindle is plugged into the charger, press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. Let the Kindle charge for another hour.
Step 7: Pickup the Kindle, press and release the power button normally, the Kindle should now wake up.

It is possible that your Kindle Fire's battery has died. If you noticed the battery life diminishing before it wouldn't turn on at all this may be the case. Here is a site that has replacement batteries for the Kindle Fire:

The Kindle touch and the Kindle FIre are great devices for your reading needs. However, there are times when it becomes unresponsive and freezes on you. Amazon says it is because the battery isn't charged properly or does not have enough power on it. It is advisable to charge your battery first before trying to reset the Kindle touch/Fire. If theKindle still has issues, then try the steps below on how to reset your Kindle touch/fire. Please note that you may lose your data during the reset process, make sure you have made a backup of your files before proceding.
  • Hard and soft reset
    Make sure the Kindle is turned ON.
  • Press the Power button for 20-30 seconds until it turns OFF.
  • Wait for it to reboot, if it doesn't press the power button to turn it ON.
  • Your kindle should be back to a responsive state.
