Most likely not: “The Little Book of …” has been a publisher’s standby since the nineteenth century (at least).

I'm assuming it's more in line with The Little Schemer series of books (https://felleisen.org/matthias/BTLS-index.html) or maybe the little book of deep learning (https://fleuret.org/francois/lbdl.html)?

My mind immediately went to the "Li'l Bastard General Mischief Kit" from The Simpsons.

No, it's _obviously_ homage to the Little Liddel[0].
