    You can format word to display like it would be in an actual book. Use page setup and put in the specs you want. Standard would be A5 size.

    Oh. As Jiro said, most word processors allow you to set up page dimensions and add a header and footer, and things like that. If you eventually got it published, they would discard your page format and use their own settings, of course, but as I understand it you just want a preview of sorts. I'm almost sure that your everyday word processor has a setting to allow you to display a left and a right page at once, too.
