About the book

The Beatrice Letters, written by Lemony Snicket, is a companion to the children's series A Series of Unfortunate Events and appears shortly before the thirteenth and final volume. The book gathers thirteen letters: six sent by Snicket to a woman named Beatrice, six from a second Beatrice to him, and one to his editor. The two Beatrices are different people, and their letters come from different periods. Snicket's early messages date from his youth, while the younger Beatrice writes later. Punch-out cardstock letters and a poster of wreckage are also included.
