Adventure
Plot:
Three
children are left as orphans
when their parents die. They are
placed with an evil man to care
for them. Count Olaf is after
the family's money and is trying
to kill the children. The
children are very smart and have
special talents. They quickly
learn Count Olaf's evil plans
and get away. No one seems to
believe them and they are placed
with Count Olaf again. What will
happen to these children?
good:
I like the way that Violet, the
oldest child, invents ways out
of the problems. She is clever,
smart, and a good leader. Klaus,
the middle child, is a very good
reader and is always reading
about ways to get out of Count
Olaf's traps. The baby is Sunny.
Even though she is small, she
bites to solve the problems
which helps Violet and Klaus.
weaknesses:
I really liked this book and the
way the author kept me hanging.
I like that it is a cliff
hanger, making me want to read
the next book in the series. I
would like the book to have more
pictures.
