A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS
by Lemony Snicket

In the darkly hilarious book series, A Series of Unfortunate Events, author Lemony Snicket shares with readers everything he knows about the Baudelaire family. After much careful research on the Baudelaires, a very wealthy bunch who seem to be the unluckiest clan in the world, Snicket is an expert.

It makes perfect sense that the series starts at the beginning with THE BAD BEGINNING, Book the First. It's in this title that we learn how children Violet, Klaus and baby Sunny Baudelaire become orphans. And from that moment on, we're on a roller coaster ride as the Baudelaires face danger, adventure and doom at every turn. Of course, along with all the gloominess come some pretty good laughs. In all, 13 books have been published --- a most unlucky number.

So explore our feature and find out more about these unusual books and their mysterious author. You won't want to miss this unique and very funny reading experience!
