The Wide Window (A Series of Unfortunate Events 3)

Dear reader,?

If you have not read anything about the Baudelaire orphans, then before you read even one more sentence, you should know this: Violet, Klaus and Sunny are kindhearted and quick-witted, but their lives, I am sorry to say, are filled with bad luck and misery. All of the stories about these three children are unhappy and wretched, and the one you are viewing may be the worst of them all.?

If you haven’t got the stomach for a story that includes a hurricane, a signalling device, hungry leeches, cold cucumber soup, a horrible villain, and a doll named Pretty Penny, then this book will probably fill you with despair.?

I will continue to record these tragic tales, for that is what I do. You, however, should decide for yourself whether you can possibly endure this miserable story.

With all due respect,?

Lemony Snicket

Despite their wretched contents, A Series of Unfortunate Events has sold?60 million?copies worldwide and been made into a Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey, and (to make matters worse), into a Netflix series starring Neil Patrick Harris. You have been warned!
