RE: How to buy a Kindle book

Hello Kim, You cannot buy a Kindle book from within the iOS app, itself. You must either use Safari on your iOS device or your preferred web browser on any other device to log-in to Amazon and complete the purchase process. This is because Amazon refuses to share their income with Apple.
