Book 1: The Mysterious Howling
Penelope Lumley, a graduate from the Swanburne Academy for Poor Bright Females, has been hired as a governess for three children, Alexander, Beowulf and Cassiopeia. But Penelope has a surprise waiting for her at the grand Ashton Place. Alexander, Beowulf, and Cassiopeia have been brought up by wolves. The three Incorrigibles were found in the woods by Lord Frederick Ashton, master of Ashton Place, when he was hunting. Any normal governess would fail at taming three purely wild children. Luckily, Penelope is no normal governess. But at the christmas party planned near christmas, someone has secretly encouraged the children's wolfish habits. Who is behind it all?
Book 2: The Hidden Gallery
Penelope Lumley, a graduate from the Swanburne Academy for Poor Bright Females, has decided to take the newly tamed Incorrigibles to London so as to leave the maids to clean Ashton Place without getting in the way. As Penelope and the children see all of London's great sights, unexpected mysteries seem to pop up out of nowhere.
I love how the mysteries flow from one problem to the next in this series. The way that both the past of the Incorrigibles and Penelope's past are somehow linked really urges me on through this series. I recommend it to any Lemony Snicket fan.
