Hello,
It sound like your have downloaded newer versions of Open Office which will only run on a Mac with the Intel
processor. As your iBook has a PPC processor, you need to look for older supported versions of Open Office.
You can get older version for PPC here:

You could install Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac, but you would need to buy a copy.
Neo Office is another that would work with your iBook http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php
Best of luck.
