David Borgenicht and Robin Epstein

illustrated by Chuck Gonzales

Braces. Bullies. Chores. Childhood is chock-full of perilsbut finally here's something to come to the rescue. The newest title in the phenomenally successful Worst-Case Scenario series provides kid-friendly, hands-on, step-by-step instructions for outwitting a nosy sibling, surviving a school dance, cleaning your room in a snap, dealing with an irritated parent (recognizing the tell-tale signs!), and more.

David Borgenicht has survived dozens of childhood nightmares, including the one where you wake up naked in the middle of a test you haven't studied for. He now lives a stable adult life in Philadelphia.

Robin Epstein broke her arm giving her older sister a piggyback ride. Then, she broke her other arm in a three-legged race. Breaks number three (playing badminton) and four (tripping over her own feet) soon followed. She now lives a cast-free life in New York.
