Maybe you can judge a book by its cover

When I'm checking books out to students I often have a stack of books beside me on the desk that need to be returned to the shelves. One day while I was checking out books to 1st grade I had one of the Goosebumps books beside me. One of my students was looking at the book while waiting.  He then announce....

"Wow that books like the bible!"

I myself would never think to describe a book with a zombie on the cover as being similar to Holy Scripture.  I can only assume that as a student who still reads books with less then 20 pages that he was basing his comment on size and not content.
