Then.... when putting the books from the flash drive to the kindle just drop the whole folder into the documents file on the kindle?

Thanks

Save to Disk or save to Folder (where disk/folder is the Flash drive) will work.
AZW3 format works well on my K4, If you configure the Disk or Folder (drivers) when you first connect (on the device Icon: Configure this device) to have only the proper formats ticked and ordered, you should be good to go with the sneakernet.

At her end: Simply copy or move the books (or folders: the K4 does not seem to mind sub-directories) to where the existing books are found.
