Q: How do I view the cover of a book in iBooks up close?

I made an eYearbook. When I open it in iBooks it looks great but it does not allow me to view the cover of the book like it does the other pages. How do I do that? (We have a really cool yearbook cover and kids want to see it on thier device). I can always edit with book creator but that is not preferable.

iPad, iOS 6.1.4

    For some reason Apple have always inserted a blank page to the left of the cover page (on portrait books). It's not great but you can zoom in by pinching. And the latest version of iBooks (3.2) recently updated for iOS 7, has been designed to remove the border and view the pages in the whole of the screen.

     

    Or if you've got a Mac, iBooks is now available in OSX Mavericks so you could view the book there.
