• climb a mountain of homework
• rescue a sinking grade
• survive a crush
• rise above a wardrobe malfunction
• safely face down a bully ...and much more, including 2 special, top-secret chapters: FOR GIRLS ONLY and FOR BOYS ONLY.David Borgenicht is a writer, editor, publisher, and co-author of all the books in the Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook series. Ben H. Winters lives in Brooklyn where he writes books, plays, musicals, articles, and lots of to-do lists. Robin Epstein teaches sitcom writing in NYU's Department of Dramatic Writing, and leads a dramatic life (pure fiction). Chuck Gonzales is a New York City-based illustrator.
