The book itself holds a world record, as the best-selling copyrighted book series of all time.[2]It is also one of the most of stolen books from public libraries in the United States."

Suresh Joachim Arulanantham is a Tamil Canadian film actor and producer and multiple-Guinness World Record holder who has broken over 50 world records set in several countries in attempts to benefit the underprivileged children around the world. Some world record attempts are more unusual than others: he is pictured here minutes away from breaking the ironing world record at 55 hours and 5 minutes, at Shoppers World, Brampton. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ironing_guinness_0357.JPG |
