Summary: GREAT BOOKS
Comment: email [email protected]
A Series Of Unfortunate Events, by Lemony Snicket, are the best books I've read and you should read them. They're suspenseful, exciting, and humorous all at the same time. Here is a brief summary of the books. The Baudelaire children's parents died in a fire. In each book the children are in a new place with a new guardian. This is because of their evil Uncle, Count Olaf, who always gets rid of their guardians. His goal is to kill the kids and take their fortune. There are three kids: Klaus, Violet and Sunny. Klaus is twelve, Violet is fourteen and Sunny is a baby. These orphans are forced to get away from Count Olaf in every book.

These books are also exciting, because you never know what will happen next. There are creepy murders in the books. For example in the second book, The Reptile Room, the orphans' guardian is injected with snake venom. This is only one of the murders in the series. Also the kids travel a lot, and you travel to a new setting in each book. My favorite setting is pale and foggy Lake Lachrymose from the third book, The Wide Window. Often the kids are in life-and-death situations. For instance in the tenth book, The Slippery Slope, the orphans nearly plunge to bloody deaths in a freak, freak trailer accident. Now isn't that exiciting? Well I think it is.

The books are also pretty funny because of the humorous situations and jokes. Like in the sixth book it was funny when Sunny climbs up the elevator shaft with her teeth. The author's pretty funny and helpful when he explains what a word means. It's sort of funny when it sounds like he's in the books too. I really recommend A Series Of Unfortunate Events to all readers.

Summary: Exceptional Children's Literature
Comment: I have read all of the Lemony Snicket "A Series of Unfortunate Events" books (with the exception of #10). I am hoping to recieve this box set for Christmas. These books are excellent for children, but have humor in them that only adults can appreciate. These books are good at introducing new vocabulary to the reader, although the vocabulary words are sometimes limited or questionable in their definitions given. All-in-all, these books are a great adventure for everyone. Being in the education field, I have found children fall in love with reading because of the lives of the Baudlaire orphans. I can't wait to see how it ends!

Summary: THE BEST BOOKS IN THE WORLD
Comment: Please read these books! They are the best. Just try it. Go to your closest local library and purchase the series. The books are great. I think Lemony Snicket is wonderful. They're no better books. They are the perfect books for children. Once you read the first chapter it releases little by little and gets more interesting. This book is perfect for ages 7-11. They are wonderful. Get up and go to Borders! The books get better as you go. They help children with their basic understanding. So get up and throw those Captain Underpants books away. Those books are so stupid. The Series Of Unfortanate Events is definitely #1 series in the whole world for children. Best books are right here!
