You have to give her a copy of the iPhoto Library; copy the library to an external disk and she can work on the library from there.

Delete all photos from the copy of the iPhoto library, that are not needed for the book.

The external disk needs to be formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled) and the "Ignore Ownership flag" needs to be set, as described in this linked document: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users


You can only share an iPhoto library, if your friend has the same iPhoto version as you, or a newer version.
