Ok one more I need to ask you.
The Great Lakes (they, themselves) are Babe's drinking water.

Is it themselves
Yes.
The correct pronoun to use in this sentence is "itself." To determine this, we need to consider the role of the pronoun in the sentence. In this case, the pronoun is referring back to the noun "book" as a reflexive pronoun, indicating that the book is a collector's item on its own.
To make sure you choose the correct pronoun, think about the function of the word and the word it refers to in the sentence. In this case, "itself" emphasizes the independent quality of the book as a collector's item.
