JCC And then the murders began

Mr. & Mrs. Brown first met Paddington on a railway platform. And then the murders began.

It was love at first sight. And then the murders began.

I wandered lonely as a cloud that floats on high o'er vales & hills, when all at once I saw a crowd, a host of golden daffodils. And then the murders began.

Honestly, this is obviously the best:

That somehow makes that incredibly funny opening line so much funnier and also somehow makes it incredibly creepy.

But what's so great is how much I now want to read some of these books. Horton discovers that the whispering voices he hears may hold the key to a series of brutal murders? Somebody write this book.

If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth. And then the murders began.
