If you already have a PowerPoint template and format that works, you may use that. But we need to keep the format simple and exclude extraneous graphics, banners or material that is not necessary to present the content. Slide shows that complemented classical texts may not be good slideshows for and eBook because the eBook format is similar to a slide show. You may just need a series of pages or tables to convey the information. Use slide shows to take a deeper look at a concept, or present content that is not consistent with the rest of your eBook format. For example a case study, special problem, biography or closer look at a geographic region might support the content and make a good slideshow. But, core content that could be presented in within the page format of the book would not be a good slide show.
