What a delightful combination - Maira Kalman and Lemony Snicket. The master of juvenile macabre and the world's most delightful illustrator. The 13 Words ends up making a story as non sequitur and charming as Kalman's drawings. Any new volume by either of these luminaries is a cause for celebration, but in partnership -let the party begin!

Oh. Oh. Just when I thought I'd slip through the month with nothing in my Amazon cart. What a combination, indeed.
