Changing Cover Art in Books

I'm trying to change the cover art for some audiobooks I have on my mac, and I can't seem to find any way to do so. The files are m4bs, I have Books version 3.2 and my computer is running Big Sur version11.6. Is there any way of doing this?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.6

PDF cover not displaying correctly in books app I have a book in PDF that the cover displays perfectly in the library view of the books app (version 2.4) on my Mac, yet when I transfer it to my iPad Pro, running the latest version of the books app, it crops the cover by about 1/3 vertically, is there a way to correct this?

Setting a Dynamic wallpaper in macOS Monterey Hello, Recently got a Mac mini running Monterey and was wondering how I can set my own dynamic wallpapers. Tried copying them into System/Library but they refuse to copy. Disabled SIP and tried changing permissions of the Desktop Pictures folder but Finder just says "The operation can't be completed because you don't have the necessary permission." Setting wallpapers via right-clicking gives me this issue with the jumbled text: I have copied and used many of my own dynamic wallpapers on my MacBook Pro running Big Sur. Wondering what the difference is here. Any suggestions?

Anyone know of an osx ebook editor that works w Catalina? Sigil will not open due to Catalina system preventions. Calibre will not download as the servers are always "busy". I want to add a cover to an ebook. It always shows as Apple generic book cover.

I don't think so. I am really getting annoyed with the Mac books app as it offers very limited functionality. If you have access to a windows computer you can try importing the books there, editing them, then importing them back into books. I have had missed success with that method though.
