Double Take, Part XX

January 24, 2010 |

Written by: Kelly on January 24, 2010.

I love when these pop up in unexpected places. The contrast (or not!) in subject matter this time is too good.


Deadline by Chris Crutcher was published in September 2007 by HarperCollins/GreenWillow. Nice, very memorable cover.

Compare that bad boy to this one:

Conquer Back and Neck Pain: Walk It Off! by Mark D. Brown was published June 2008 by Sunrise River Press. This is a non-fiction, adult title.

The images are just flipped 180 degrees, but it’s the exact same one.

What do you think? One book’s about a boy knowing he’s going to die and the other is a non-fiction book about how to get over aches and pains in your back and neck. This one’s too good to be true.

    Haha! I *love* this! It's almost as good as when the cover for "Shrinking Violet" was on an ad about cold sores.

    You're right — the contrast in subject for this one is particularly funny! Nice catch!
