So the things about these books.the setting is amazing. I can’t put it better than Lemony Snicket himself, so I’ll just shoehorn in his words: Within these pages, “the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune, and cold porridge for breakfast.” Second, we follow the Baudelaires - Violet, Klaus, and Sunny - through what can only be Very Foreseeably Described as a series of unfortunate events. What are you doing? There is nothing so important in your life that you can’t put it off in order to read this series. So, for the three misguided people who haven’t read this series - first off, get ON THAT. While at the beach, they learn that their home has been destroyed by a fire and that their parents have perished.YES!!! The least fascinatingly detailed book in my favorite series! It just keeps getting better and better, folks. The baby Sunny is only understood by her parents and siblings. He is an avid reader who also loves to study things, like the spiny crabs in a tidepool. Twelve-year old Klaus is also very smart. Fourteen-year-old Violet, the oldest of the siblings, skips rocks into the water while thinking of an invention that could return the rock to her. As the weather is cloudy, they have the beach to themselves. Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are on their favorite beach, Briny Beach. The book is aptly named as it does indeed have a bad beginning.
The dark and humorous series inspired the 2004 film Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events.
The book is illustrated by Brett Helquist. After a fire, the orphaned children are sent to live with Count Olaf, who tries to steal their inheritance. The book introduces the Baudelaire siblings, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny. The Bad Beginning: Or, Orphans! (1999) is the first book in a well-known series of children’s novels, A Series of Unfortunate Events, written by Daniel Handler under his pen name, Lemony Snicket.
