Thanks Michael., that should do it. So Sebastián's solution could  
look like:

$("#book .page").each(function(){
        $("p:first",this).each(function(){
                /* do stuff with the first paragraph found within each .page 
div */
        });
});

I'm sure this can be reduced even further. Maybe something like:

$('#book .page').find('p:first').each(function(){
        /* do stuff ... */
});

or even:

$('p:first','#book .page').each(function(){
        /* do stuff ... */
});
