A collection of stories for wise young people and immature
old people, written by favorites of all ages: Nick Hornby
(High Fidelity, About a Boy), John Scieszka (The
Stinky Cheese Man), Neil Gaiman (The Sandman,
American Gods), and many others. Each story features
color illustrations by a different artist, including Barry
Blitt, Marcel Dzama, and Lane Smith.
Lemony Snicket
adds an introduction and a story of his own—at least, he
starts one, and then it is up to the reader to finish. The
story appears on the inside of the dust jacket; you add your
own thrilling, joyful, or disgusting ending. The jacket then
folds up into a fancy envelope, addressed to us. Our
favorite ending will receive a fabulous prize of some sort.
