Q: When I order a book on iPhoto, will someone help edit it to be sure all the photos are ok?

Some of the photos are from a digital camera, and they look fine. The ones take with iPhones seems grainy, and I wonder

if they will look better in the finished product than they do when I print them on my LaserPrinter.

No - no one will help you edit it

you should preview it - Preview a print project in Photos, iPhoto, or Aperture to avoid issues - Apple Support - the printed product will match the preview - and it is good ot save it for comparison with the finished book

You can calculate the DPI of the prints (Pixels of the photo divided by inches of the print) - It should be at least 150 DPI and 300 is better

Thank you, LarryHN. I don't see where to save the project. I'm on a Mac. Does that make a difference?

Yes of course you are on a Mac since iPhoto for Mac only runs on a Mac

If you read the link I supplied and follow the instructions it will produce a PDF preview of the book and it will be opened in the Preview application while it is open in Preview you use the file menu ==> save - the same as any other application on a Mac
