Sorry for posting a little late, but as the compass in MCPE points to spawn, I would say that making a compass and then marking the way from your base to spawn, is an absolute requirement for survival in the long run. This would also allow you for exploring surrounding areas, as you could always find your way back to your base via the spawn point.

The fastest and luckiest way to do this, is to find a mineshaft with library, and then picking the bookshelf (or books) from this. Second to this, is to find villages with libraries (but these are a lot smaller).

The last option, which is most commonly used, I guess, is to make a cow farm and breed cows for some time until you get the necessarry amount of leather. My strategy has been to gather 4-6 cows and breed until I have around 20 cows, and then kill the herd down to 4-6 cows again. It does take some time, but it does work.
