Part of the A Series of Unfortunate Events Series
More destructive than a hurricane, and almost as damp. The third in this bestselling series (in fact in the top five of bestsellers of the last decade), sees the Baudelaire children moved to their third guardian, Aunt Josephine, who lives on a house overlooking Lake Lachrymose. Violet, Sunny and Klaus are three intelligent, charming and resourceful children but the relentless Count Olaf returns to try and steal their fortune in sinister style. Here they encounter lake monsters, suspicious Captains, allergic reactions, and much much more, all of which is revealed in the hugely entertaining, totally deadpan humour that has made this series so original and so captivating.
Throughout 2010 further titles will be released in the long-awaited paperback format. Rest assured we'll be the first to know when they're coming. To go to our special 'Series of Unfortunate Events' click here.
There is nothing to be found in the pages of these books but misery and despair. You still have time to choose something else to read. But if you must know what unpleasantries befall the charming and clever Baudelaire children read on...A story that includes a hurricane, a signalling device, hungry leaches, cold cucumber soup, a horrible villain and a doll named Pretty Penny. Then again, why trouble yourself with the unfortunate resolutions? Avoid these books in Lemony Snicket's international bestselling series and you'll never have to know what happens!
