Rating: Summary: My Child and The Vile Village Review: My child loves the book The Vile Village. She is so attached to reading the series. Before I couldn't even get her to read, and her grades were slipping, but we discovered the book and since then she has had a better interest in reading. I hope you get your children to read this wonderful book too. (Try to read the books in order. You'll get more sense out of them that way.) Good luck, anonymous
Rating: Summary: Good But Not Great Review: This book is the worst in the series, but don't get me wrong, it is definetly not a bad book. Just not as good as the others. Violet,Klaus and Sunny are now living in the village of V.F.D. with a handyman man named Hector. They must find the Quagmire triplets before anything bad can happen to them. Read this book to see if the Baudelaires find the secret of V.F.D. or will it take even more time?
Rating: Summary: The Wide Window Review: My favorite book in the series was this one the wide window i liked when klaus figured out the riddle that their aunt josephine left to them.My other favorite part was when aunt josephine died in the water,these are the best books everyone should rea d them
Rating: Summary: Its Vile! Really! Review: Violet, Sunny and Klaus get adopted by a village (Global Village, get it?). Your children will understand really. Mine did and they thought it was very funny. But the story is very sad as well because of all the unfortunate things that happen to the children...
Rating: Summary: Not Just For Kids Review: Love love this series. Move over, eight year olds, the big people love these books too. I am a librarian and I can tell you, I have as many grownups checking these wonderful books out as the kids!!! One patron said he and his girl friend read them to each other. Ah....I won't go into plotlines. I think that has all been covered. I am just here to tell the grownups not to read these books. If you have a Baudelaire book in your hand, it is not too late. Put the book down and go read John Updike or Joyce Carol Oates or something....if you are wanting a sweet book for your grandchildren about dear little tots going on picnics, having adventures and grand times on the beach, these books are not it. Get the kids the Bobbsy Twins!
Rating: Summary: Lemony Snicket! Review: Lemony Snicket your series rools! I just finished reading the first 6 in the series and they all have been awesome.This particular book is great. It is about Klaus,Sunny,and Violet living at V.h.d. a crows wonderland but a kids horror.They have a pretty nice guardian that has all the things that Klaus,Sunny,and Violet like.Klaus likes books,Violet likes to invent things,Sunny likes to bite on hard toys. I'm telling you these books will intrest you.Also if you like and take my advice there is another good book called the "Giver ." By the way I read a lot so you can find some reviews on other books, written by me.Hope you enjoy this book. P.S. number 8 is out if you've finish number 7.Number 9 and 10 come out this summer.
Rating: Summary: Awesome Author and Book!!! Review: This is a great book. Lemony Snicket is na awesome author. I read books 1 through 7 and the 7th is the best so far. Each book tells about the lives of the Baudelaire orphans and how Count Olaf wants to steal the fortune their parents left behind when they died. Lemony snicket keeps you wondering about what will happen next. You never know what his next disquise will be. I rate this book for kids ages 9 -13
Rating: Summary: The BEST IN THE SERIES Review: THhis one was one my favorite because it kept me on the edge of my seat.I finished it in 5 hours!
Rating: Summary: interesting and mysterious Review: I think it's mysterious because they never tell you the secret of V.F.D. I kept reading the book because I thought it might tell me the secret. I was sort of disappointed that they never told me. I recommend this book because it's very interesting and slightly confusing and it has plenty of surprises.
Rating: Summary: "It takes a village to raise an orphan!" Review: THE VILE VILLAGE is the seventh book in the Series of Unfortunate Events which focuses on the lives of Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudalaire. In this new chapter of their lives the three Baudalaire orphans find themselves unwanted by any of their relatives because of their recent "unfortunate events". However the get the good news or you can consider it bad news that the village of V.F.D whose motto is "IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD" wants to adopt them. The orphans are excited as they embark on their new journey as they very well know that this village might hold the secrets to the Quagmire triplet's secret about V.F.D. However when they arrive there they find thousands of crows to greet them and thounsands of ridiculous rules they have to follow. Plus the three of them have to do all the chores they village elders require them. It seems the only person who actrully accepts the orphans to care for is the village keeper named Hector. However he isn't much help because he gets skittish around the village elder for their stupid rules. The good thing is that he keeps a secret inventing studio and a secret library( which by the way are against the rules in V.F.D.) for Violet and Klaus to enjoy. The plot thickens when they kids find couplets written by Isable Quagmire under the tree next to Hecoter's shack and then the three Baudlaires get the news that Count Olaf(Known in V.F.D. as Count Omar) has been captured. However as all the unfortunate things are for them this one can also be counted for this Count Olaf is false. Before the kids can get information about him he is mysterouisly murdered and guess what? The detective who comes to review the case is no other than Count Olaf in one of his new ridiculous diguises. And he accuses the kids of murder! Can the Baudlaires find a solution to their neverending series of unfortunate events? This 7th book was totally genious by Lemony Snicket! It is one of my favorites. The 8th book which I have already read can be said to be even better. However let me warn you if you hate bad and unfortunate endings don't read these books!!!! Listen to the author's advice!
