Need help making autograph books...

[Mouseluvrs]

This summer is my 2 daughters' first trip to WDW and I am going to attempt to make autograph books for them...but I have a few questions that I hope someone here can help me with.
I saw a suggestion to create the book and then send it to staples or officedepot online and that they could print and bind it there. My question is what type of program do I create it in?? I want to make a 4x6 book and have all the clip art and designs I need, but I am not sure how to create it to ensure that the sizing is right when I send it to be printed and bound. Can anyone help with this????

I appreciate it so much!!!!!!!!!!

I've used:
Print Shop 22-is the easiest program but you can't specify sizes. It would be a wide greeting card.
These are a little more involved but I learn as I play and there are good tutorial websites.
Corel X2
Photoshop Elements 4,5,6

I would save your designs as a jpeg and then go into your pictures and select print then your photo printing wizard should show up. You can choose setting preferences there. You can go to I want to, then select print a photo. You will then be able to select size and borderless. I would select 4x6. Once you have done that you can continue through photo printing wizard to print you photos which you can print on 4x6 blank postcards.

I did mine in Excel. I made 1 cell per page. I bought a package of 5 x 8 blank index cards and selected that as the paper size. I have printed out several books and used cardboard for the covers and then took them to Office Max or Office Depot and had them bound. It worked out very well.
