It seems to me that you don't need a book: you already have the material you posted originally. And exercises you make up for yourself are an important part of your player development. Here is one suggestion:
Look at the Gade passage. Starting on the low F#, play the arpeggio going up in groups of three, so we get F#AC|ACEb|CEbF#|EbF#A|F#AC|...and so on.
You can follow the notes on the page as you play them. That's useful because it generates a link between the notes you see on the page and the experience of playing them.
Then start at the top A and do the same thing going downwards. In the Gade, the arpeggio loops back on itself, but you can ignore that (or not, depending how much you want to challenge yourself). So the simple version is:
AF#Eb|F#EbC|EbCA|CAF#|AF#Eb(the lower Eb)|F#EbC|...and so on, while the 'looping' version follows the Gade notes directly.
You'll probably make mistakes at first, and have to go slowly, but you'll get better at it.
The next step would be to group the notes in fours, so you'd start:
F#ACEb|ACEbF#|CEbF#A|...etc
The principle here is that you're practising something more complicated than the original passage in one way (there are more notes and more interval shifts to think about) but also simpler, in that you're not tied down to making a musical phrase work.
The final outcome may well be that the original Gade seems to 'play itself' to a greater extent.
