For more than twenty years, Lemony Snicket has led millions of young readers through a mysterious world of bewildering questions and unfortunate events. With this latest book-a love letter to readers young and old about the vagaries of real life-longtime fans and new readers alike will experience Snicket's distinctive voice in a new way. This true story-as true as Lemony Snicket himself-begins with a puzzling note under his door: You had poison for breakfast. Following a winding trail of clues to solve the mystery of his own demise, Snicket takes us on a thought-provoking tour of his predilections: the proper way to prepare an egg, a perplexing idea called "tzimtzum," the sublime pleasure of swimming in open water, and much else. Poison for Breakfast is a classic-in-the-making that-in the great tradition of modern fables like The Little Prince and The Phantom Tollbooth-will delight readers of all ages.
