Thanks in advance
USB is a standard, with 3 sizes on the slave side, full, mini (being phased out) and micro. Your kindle needs micro-USB, and you can use any micro-USB from other devices (like your camera), as they all adhere to the same standard.

Just input "micro usb cable" on Amazon's search page and choose any.
