About this product

Product Information

There is nothing to be found in the pages of A Series of Unfortunate Events but misery and despair. You still have time to choose another international best-seller to read. But if you must know what unpleasantries befall the charming and clever Baudelaire children read on...In The Bad Beginning the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune and cold porridge for breakfast. Then again, why trouble yourself with the unfortunate resolutions? With 5 million copies sold in the UK alone, one might consider Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events to make him one of the most successful children's authors of the past decade. We, however, consider these miserable so-called adventure stories and the Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey that accompanied the books for children as nothing more than a dreadful mistake.

  • Pages inside were clean but the edges were yellow and the cover had a marks from a cup or glass on the front - it looked neglected, not 'very good'

    A difficult book to book at the library as it has a long waiting list, so we jumped the queue by buying the book online. The purchased book arrived a month before we received advice that we were now sufficiently high up the waiting list to get the book at the library. Good read for 8 to 10 year olds.
