Lemony Snicket's a Series of Unfortunate Events Dominates March 21 New York Times Best Sellers List

"On the March 21, 2004 New York Times Best Sellers List, A Series of Unfortunate Events held seven out of ten slots on the Children's Chapter Book List-a feat only duplicated by the Snicket series itself on May 5, 2002; Feb. 9, 2003 and April 13, 2003.

No series has ever dominated a New York Times Best Sellers list like A Series of Unfortunate Events. The seven titles on the March 21 list-The Bad Beginning, The Reptile Room, The Wide Window, The Miserable Mill, The Ersatz Elevator, The Austere Academy and The Slippery Slope-have been on the New York Times' list a total of 448 reported weeks. The series as a whole has been on the list in excess of 600 weeks."
