If this doesn't work, the battery is probably dead. This is a very old kindle, may be time to replace it.
The Kindle 4th Gen (with no touch screen) was released September 28, 2011. That's 10 years 5 months ago. I would not be surprised if the battery was shot or the power button is flaky. I don't recall if it support a sleep cover.

Given the advancements, I would defiantly go for a new Reader.
