Eliminate header/captions box on Keynote widget

Question

I have just completed the near final draft of my first iBook.
Among a few vexing issues I have yet to resolve is this one:
I have embedded over a dozen photo-gallery keynote widgets, all as thumbnails. I have eliminated the headers and captions on all of them, but I cannot eliminate the header/caption box around the thumb picture, nor can I make that box exactly fit the thumbnail image. I need to wrap text about the thumbnail images, but the wrap goes instead around the too-large header/caption box and this causes some bad appearance problems. I can deselect the wrap on that box and select wrap for just the thumbnail image, but then it doesn't wrap at all, despite the fact "wrap" is checked in the inspector. The text just falls behind the image.
Can I eliminate that troublesome box? Or is there some way to at least deselect the box and put a wrap that works directly on the thumbnail image?

Luc, I cannot really give you any examples on Amazon, as the only books I was looking for were iBA books. No matter how good, how creative, a print book would have been of no help to me.
I suppose if there is an example on Amazon of how I like to work photos and words together it would be my own work, so I will give you a link to my book, Gift of the Whale. Yet, if Gift of the Whale had been done by someone else and I had set out to do the book I have been working on and had found it, it would have been of no help to me. Not even an iPad app photo book, some of which are amazing, would be of help because they are not made with iBA tools.
After I get a couple of additional iBA books under my belt, I plan to redo Gift of the Whale as an iBook. And when I do, even with the experience of few a iBooks behind me and a clear vision of where I want to go, I will launch another search of iBA books to see if I can get additional ideas about how to use iBA in a creative. My initial experience at asking people for any recommendations was so negative, the response so insulting and condescending, I will be hesitant to ask again, but I probably will.
I think my first book is a little crude and rough, but that's how you learn. Not by mastering first and then making, but by actual making and mastering as you go along. I could work on it another year, easy, but it has a Christmas theme and I want to get it out there now.
As to whether or not I was pushing in an unfriendly fashion, I don't really think so. It is very true that you can examples of where I came on feeling very irritated at a problem I had encounter in iBA, but never unfriendly toward someone who made an honest effort to help, rather than to lecture. I would say that at least 25 percent, maybe more, of the time and effort I have put toward this first iBA book has been put toward trying to solve the many problems of iBA. As I solve them, I see the logic behind some of the processes but there are a lot of problems that strike me as having unnecessarily been built into the system and the only way out is to come up with workarounds.
