A Series of Unfortunate Events #5: The Austere Academy Hardcover - 2000
by Lemony Snicket; Brett Helquist (Illustrator); Michael Kupperman (Illustrator)
This fifth book of "A Series Of Unfortunate Events" continues the wretched adventures of the charming Baudelaires at boarding school. Violet, Klaus, and Sunny face strict punishments, dripping fungus, comprehensive exams, a girl named Carmelita Spats, smelly sneakers, and the metric system.
From the rear cover
As the three Baudelaire orphans warily approach their new home Prufrock Preparatory School: they can?t help but notice the enormous stone arch bearing the school?s motto Memento Mori or "Remember you will die." This is not a cheerful greeting and certainly marks an inauspicious beginning to a very bleak story just as we have come to expect from Lemony Snickett?s Series of Unfortunate Events, the deliciously morbid set of books that began with The Bad Beginning and only got worse.
Ages 10+
