First call amazon customer support! They are really good at helping you get your kindle back up and running.
A couple questions to ask yourself
Is the kindle fully charged? There might only be enough power for the green LED and not the actual kindle!
If this is your last resort:
I have never done this, and it would certainly void your warrant but I am told that there is a reset button underneath the cover of the kindle...
Your husband switched the device off. If you give the power switch a short nudge only, it goes in and out of "stand-by" mode, it is not really switched off.
Try to slide and hold the power switch again, until after the power light blinks three times. Should happe after ~5 seconds of holding. The Kindle should restart now --- takes about a minute, but you will see a progress bar to keep you happy during the delay.
Connect the device to the charger (if you got one, in some countries Amazon does not include a separate charger). Otherwise use the provided USB cable and connect it to a PC.
Does the light come up now? While charging, there should be a constant amber light that turns into green when the device is fully charged.
If there is no light, your Kindle, cable or charger is broken and you should contact Amazon Kindle support for a replacement / repair.
If the light went on, wait until it turns green.
Slide and hold the on switch until after the power light blinks three times. This should happen after about 5 seconds of holding.
Release the switch and wait for the device to boot up.
If there is still no reaction, contact Amazon Kindle support for repair or replacement options.
Shift the power button and hold it for a slow count of 15 (at least 15 seconds) and then release it. It will look like nothing is happening after you release the power button but in 5 or 10 more seconds it will reset and reboot.
