As someone who actually has to live by solar power alone (in the African bush) and has a Kindle, I can offer you a 'quick and dirty' method though it won't be pretty.

Buy or salvage an old car battery. Hook up a cheap solar panel to it. Get yourself a 12v car USB-charger, connect it to the battery, charge the Kindle.

In essence this is what I do all the time (with all my equipment in fact) though of course with a somewhat more sophisticated set-up!
