So far as I know, and I'm certainly not a Kindle expert, the mbp file is generated by Kindle and used to store the last place in the mobi file which you reached. That is, it is not an ebook file in itself.

I think you'll find that all mbp files are associated with a mobi file. The easiest way to test whether I'm right would be to delete the mbp file and see whether the mobi file opens at the beginning.
