Add and remove photos in a book
You can add and remove photos in a book at any time.
Tip: To quickly add photos from an album or smart album to an existing book, select the photos you want, then drag them from the album onto the book project in the sidebar.
Note: The page layout of a page determines what you can add to it, including how many photos can fit on the page. To change the number of photos on a page, change the page’s layout.
Click a book under Projects in the sidebar.

Add a photo to an empty photo frame: Drag the photo from the Photos area at the bottom of the window to the photo frame.
