I use lilypond-book this way all the time, with many \input files.  I 
seem to recall having trouble at some point, getting an error saying 
something like "output would override input file," and the problems were 
solved by using a .lytex extension instead of .tex on all of the LaTeX 
source files, even if they didn't contain any lilypond code.   Your 
description "it doesn't work" is sort of vague, but if you're not 
already using .lytex as your file extension, you might try that.  If 
that doesn't work please send a more detailed description of what 
happens when you try to run the files.  Best,

Jon
