A Series of Unfortunate Events  #3

                        by: Lemony Snicket

          Violet loves to invent. You could tell that she is thinking of an invention when her long dark hair is tied back with a ribbon. Klaus loves reading. He spends almost all of his time in his family library. He has read hundreds and hundreds of books about all sorts of subjects. He could tell about which monkey preferred grapes over apples, or what George Washington's favorite color was, or about the most poisonous plant in the country in Ladonia. And Sunny, the baby sister, she loved to bite. She bites rocks, socks, bird, sticks and anything she can get her hands on really.

              But there is something wrong with all of them. Death, misery, and misfortune seem to follow them everywhere they go.
