A Series Of Unfortunate Events 01. The Bad Beginning

Description

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.
