How can I create an iBook from a book created in iPhoto?

I've used iPhoto for a number of years to create some great photo books. It would seem to be a natural progression to convert these files into an iBook format (with or without using iBooks Author). I've got the most recent versions of these apps (iPhoto 9.6 and iBooks Author 2.2) running on my iMac under Yosemite (OS X 10.10.2). However, the two programs still seem to be totally unaware of each other. Is there something I'm missing, or some workaround to make this happen?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

There is no way to do this. Make your epub book in iBooks with iBooks Author.

iBooks on the iPad or iPhone can read PDFs. As a first step, you can export your iPhoto books to a PDF version and read them on your mobile devices with iBooks. Create your PDF like described here: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
