Why can "they do not have much to read" not be translated as " ils n'ont pas beaucoup à lire"? Why must it be "grand-chose" instead?

Google Translate allows it.

This page offers it in several examples:: https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-french/much

It seems they are equally valid alternatives.
