The book features information on how to:
- Dig the perfect hole
- Identify rattlesnakes, tarantulas, yellow-spotted lizards, Mr. Sir, and other dangerous creatures
- Win friends and influence people
- and more!
As of May 18, 2003, the book was ranked 8th by The New York Times on its list of bestselling Children's Paperback Books.[2]
