The Bad Beginning (A Series of Unfortunate Events)
by Lemony Snicket
All copies are out · join the waitlist★★★★★
Meet Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire, three clever orphans whose luck seems to go from bad to worse. This is the first book in A Series of Unfortunate Events, and it is gloomy, funny and very clever all at once. The narrator keeps warning you to stop reading, and children love ignoring him. It works well for young readers who like dark humour and odd, inventive stories.
