Here's an example you can run. It does not require knowledge of page or  
margin dimensions.

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{eso-pic,graphicx}
\title{Hello World!}
\author{Abigail}
\begin{document}
\AddToShipoutPicture*{%
   \AtPageLowerLeft{%
     \includegraphics[height=\paperheight,width=\paperwidth]{PC280089}%
   }%
}
\pagestyle{empty}\mbox{}% for this empty page
\cleardoublepage
\maketitle

\pagestyle{headings}

Today, I was born.
\end{document}


And yes, she was.
