@bob_bookworm - try Open Office Draw (it might need the PDF File Import plug-in) - free.

If this is something you want to do regularly you might want to consider getting a 'real' PDF editor, such as Acrobat DC from Adobe or PDF XChange Pro from Tracker. You can get a 'free' trial of PDF XChange Pro, not sure about Acrobat DC.

Added: PDF files don't have 'covers' as a specific object, the first page is the 'cover', irrespective of whether it's an image or text. So you need to 'insert an image' at the start of the PDF.
