Description
★ "Snicket fans will love this book."―Kirkus Reviews, starred review New York Times bestselling author Lemony Snicket sheds light on the way bad moods come and go. Once there was a stick and a bad mood. The stick was on the ground,
and the bad mood was with a girl named Curly. Lemony Snicket offers a refreshing and hilarious look at the ways in which a bad mood wreaks havoc as it moves from person to person, leaving an unexpected trail of surprise in its wake: opportunities for laughter, forgiveness and even love. From a bestselling author and an acclaimed artist comes a witty and wise take on the emotional forces that impact our lives.
