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 staring at
may be the worst of them all.
If you haven't got the stomach for a
story that includes a hurricane, a
signaling device, hungry leeches, cold
cucumber soup, a horrible villain, and a
doll named Pretty Penny, then this web
site 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,
