I really don't think that helps. All the book-binding analogies are only confusing.
If anything, I'd make things more explicit. Stupid and straightforward. Maybe just "struct head_page" or something like that. Name it by what it *is*, not by analogies.
None of this cute/clever stuff. I think making it obvious and descriptive would be the much better approach, not some clever "book binders call a collection of pages XYZ".
