Start off with the three Baudelaire children, who are now sadly orphans. These first three books are the start of the children Misfortune, all starting off with their "so called close relative" Count Olaf[Who is more closer street wise then family wise]. Once you start reading this I hope you don't stop. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"The Reptile Room": After proving to the dimwitted adults that Count Olaf really was after their fortune, the Baudelaire orphans are sent to live with their Uncle Monty, who studies snakes. At first things are great: Uncle Monty is a wonderful guardian who takes good care of the kids and is planning a big snake hunting expedition to Peru. Right before they are set to leave, his new assistant shows up: Stephano. Staphano is clearly Count Olaf in disguise, but the kids can't get Uncle Monty alone long enough to explain the dire situation to him. Sadly, Olaf murders Monty and the kids are shipped off to live with yet another guardian.
"The Wide Window" has the three Baudelaire orphans going to live with their Aunt Josephine on the shore of Lake Lachrymose. Poor Aunt Josephine is terrified of everything, and life with her is pretty miserable, but at least they're safe from Count Olaf.
Sadly, not for long. Count Olaf shows up in disguise as Captain Sham, who runs a sailboat rental business. He charms Aunt Josephine, despite the orphans warnings (they see through his disguise right away, of course) and ends up forcing her to write a suicide note leaving the children in his care. Josephine cleverly plants clues in the note that Klaus deciphers and the children find her hiding in the Curdled Cave, bravely risking their lives in a hurricane to reach her. Sadly, they are stranded out in the middle of the lake when Count Olaf rescues them, throwing poor Aunt Josephine out to be eaten by the infamous leeches. Mr. Poe shows up just in time to make a bumbling mess of everything, and the kids are once again left without a home. ( )
