If what you want is a bit of extra space above the text in an epub, you can use the @page in the stylesheet. It's common in commercial epubs to have something like:

Code:

@page {
   margin: 5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt
}

You can set each margin to a different value, but I can never remember the order. Or for what you want, you can use:

Code:

@page {
   margin-top: 5pt
}

You can edit the book to add this, or, if you use calibre, you can use the "Modify CSS" option to add it when sending the book to the device.
