The purpose of using lilypond-book here is just to stick multiple 
scores together, with page numbering.

Not if you're using lilypond-book.  If you don't use \book, then you 
can't use \pageBreak in your scores.  There used to be a bug (in Aug) 
wherein the horizontal alignment of some systems was also messed up 
without \book; I'm not certain if that's still around.
