There is another discussion on this forum about making a giant book.  If you'd rather print the pages than print, then write me.

I did a production of Cinderella several years back for which the Director had a fold-out greeting card, that she wanted the set to be like. While I don't have a reproduction of what that card looked like, you can find photos of the production here:

The Castle was close to twelve feet tall, there were several windows that could open "Laugh-In" style, and for the ball, panels opened to reveal a whole wall of gilded decoration. A few scenes took place downstage of the castle, and there were also platforms right in front of the castle facade.

Its not quite a book, but it will hopefully give you some ideas for similar approaches.

We opened our production of Beauty and the Beast with a giant book (12' x 4' or so) that was a hinged frame with painted front cover that doubled as the show drop. It opened magically to a scrim that had a painted image of a red rose on it. When we got to the story-telling section of the introduction, the lighting shifted to show actors behind the scrim, pamtomiming the action of the intro. That book did come to life.
