I am sure that most of you have have heard of

sparknotes. These are study guides for books. (Especially usefull
for old literature where the plot is confusing. I would like to
volunteer to start a "wikinotes," which summarizes the the contents
of classic literature that users are likely to read in school. I
think this would not be a part of wikibooks though, as it is entirely
different.
I like it, but how is that so different from wikibooks? Start a page
"Wikinotes:Hamlet" there. Or "Wikinotes:Shakespeare", if they're
really brief summaries
Wikibooks is still very young. We should make sure that we fully grasp
its potential before spinning off another project. In some of these
cases a simple Wikipedia article may be adequate.
