(nicochulo2) How to simulate book contents

[oblique bloom]

I want to make an item that isn't a book that, when a certain event happens (could be right-clicking with it or could be shifting or whatever), simulates the GUI of a book, with words in it and (if possible) even multiple pages and the ability to pass from one to the other. Is there a way to do this with a Denizen script?
