Who Could That Be at This Hour? (All The Wrong Questions #1)
Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade
Before the Baudelaires became orphans, before he encountered A Series of Unfortunate Events, even before the invention of Netflix, Lemony Snicket was a boy discovering the mysteries of the world.
In a fading town, far from anyone he knew or trusted, a young Lemony Snicket began his apprenticeship in an organization nobody knows about. He started by asking questions that shouldn't have been on his mind. Now he has written an account that should not be published, in four volumes that shouldn't be read. This is the first volume.
Penned in signature style, "Who Could That Be at This Hour?" (also published as All the Wrong Questions Question 1) invites readers to untangle the mysteries that surround young Lemony Snicket.

Please, it's Lemony Snicket. Enough said.

Kirkus

[With] gothic wackiness, linguistic play and literary allusions....Fans of the Series of Unfortunate Events will be in heaven picking out tidbit references to the tridecalogy, but readers who've yet to delve into that well of sadness will have no problem enjoying this weird and witty yarn

School Library Journal

Starred Review
Will thrill fans of the author's earlier works and have even reluctant readers turning pages with the fervor of seasoned bookworms. A must-have.

Publisher's Weekly

Starred Review
Full of Snicket's trademark droll humor and maddeningly open-ended, this will have readers clamoring for volume two.
