Yes, it's correct not to add page numbers. You might
put in the long synopsis that the book does not have
page number; it probably isn't necessary, as the text
should follow logically and make that clear, but I
usually do.

I don't think the stripper will be a problem, since,
theoretically at least, the beginning words on each
page will be different. That isn't always the case,
though, I know. I assume the print book has
illustrations, or is it not a picture book? So you
could out the word illustration with brackets at the
top and then the stripper would take that.
