Moved to the Mobi forum. BTW, the device is called the "Kindle", not "Kindel". Probably a good idea to get that right.

You can't edit Mobi books directly; you need to convert to an editable format, do your edits, and then convert back again.
One method would be to convert your Mobi book to ePub format using Calibre, edit it in Sigil, then convert it back to Mobi format again with Calibre. |

Extract the html in Mobiunpack, edit it with your favourite html editor, and use Mobicreator to turn it back into a mobi.
