We did one book last July. Apple was faster than we expected; less then a week? The Christmas rush might make things different. 

When your book is ready to proof, select "Print" and "PDF" (lower left button in the Print Window) Then email the pdf to your siblings. 

Run the pdf in Acrobat Reader, Full Screen. In Preferences -> Full Screen set it to change pages as often as you like, Loop, Random Transitions and you'll have a custom screen saver that can show multiple pictures at a time and text (unlike iPhoto's great Slide Show) I discovered this just now while proving my advice before I sent it to you. :)

Apple's Preview has a nice Full Screen, too, called "Slide Show". I didn't find a setting to automate it though.

HTH,
