Book with famous clarinet excerpts

I really want to improve on my sight reading. It seems pretty intriguing to me to have a piece of music in front of me and just play it effortlessly. I was in awe when our band director gave us Molly on the Shore for our spring concert. The first time playing it, our concert master nailed every note and it was his first time playing it. I've been trying to stop my bad habit of tapping my toe to keep rhythm. However, now, although I don't tap my toe, I lost rhythm all together. Any ideas on keeping time without tapping toes? Answer has to be metronome but I cant think of a effective way to practice with it.

I was wondering if there was a book with a bunch of famous clarinet excerpts. I know Peter Hadcock has a book for Eb that a lot of teachers recommend. I was wondering if there was a similar book for Bb clarinet with famous excerpts like Beethoven 6, Scheherazade, all that good stuff and advice like in the Hadcock book. I think Hadcock has a Bb book as well but I cant find it online anywhere. Do you guys have other recommendations?
