A Series Of Unfortunate Events The Bad Beginning
By Maya The Baudelaire orphans are rich, smart and charming. Violet, Sunny and Klaus live the dream life. Think that’s it amazing to an heir millionaire fortune, living in a mansion with a private library, teething toys and a workshop. Having everything you want with the snap of your fingers, loving parents and you and your siblings all get along. Think it’s the dream life. Well you’re wrong. Well, the Baudelaire Orphans have the worst of luck, having their mansion scorched, losing their home and their parents. Then, existing with a horrible man their “relative” Count Olaf who treats them like slaves and physically abuses them! But these keen children have to figure out how to save themselves from the horrible man who’s trying to snake their billion-‐dollar fortune, while making a few friends on the way. Will Violet, Sunny and Klaus survive with their fortune? Violet is a clever, appealing, reliable fourteen-‐year old child. She is an inventor and can always think her way out of the bleakest circumstances, with the help of her inventions. She knows when to speak and how to approach people. Violet is family driven and feels that she is blamable for any wrong that happens to her or your family. So she feels like she must protect the remains of the Baudelaire’s. Klaus is book smart lad; he is definitely keener then the standard elven year old. He is book smart and has

read hundreds of books each all captivating him. He has a wide vocabulary or words and and often times finds himself using most of his time well, reading. He has recently been very fascinated about wolfs but since he’s met the atrocious Count Olaf, he hasn’t had much time for reading, except in Justice Strauss collection of books. But the gears are always turning in his head about the knowledge he has absorbed from books, but during any difficulty he can always use his experience and hatch a solution in any situation. Sunny, has a different set of skills for a two year old. Most children try to walk or talk, but Sunny she bites. Not metaphorically literally. Surprisingly enough even though she can only say a few things and mostly expresses herself by nibbling you (she likes you) or gnawing (she hates you, and she wants you to know it). Sunny the youngest of the Baudelaire orphans still plays a very big part in the outcome of a situation. With her ability to observe a problem she can well, bite her way to victory… or be used as a weapon against her siblings, unwillingly or corse. Count Olaf is a very sickening man, his long slender body, his scrawny face, his ghastly uni-‐brow, the unexplainable obsessions with eyes, (all over his house, the eye tattoo to his ankle and his signature) his rundown, rotten house and his vile attitude. Count Olaf doesn’t care for the bright, kind hearted, innocent, orphaned Baudelaire children. For all he cares, he would enjoy them rotting to a sluggish, excruciating death as long as he got the Baudelaire

fortune. Count Olaf is vain and talentless. He believes he magnificent and a brilliant playwright and actor, but as this story is very unfortunate the Baudelaire have to listen to him and applaud, it’s like watching paint dry. Count Olaf uses the Baudelaire children as slaves making them do sets of monotonous chores repairing his rotten, rundown house while he’s spending the very last of his small amount of money left getting drunk with his threate troupe. Being Count Olaf he’s always up too no good trying to steal the Baudelaire fortune, if the Baudelaire do one tinsy, tiny thing wrong he is angry with them, abusing them, yelling at them and putting them in terrible danger. Justice Strauss is an energy ball of life. She is a merciful, tenderhearted and gullible woman. She has a soft spot for the Baudelaire orphans, and enjoys their company like if they were her own children. Justice Strauss well if you can tell by her name is a judge. Her hobbies are gardening and reading in her cozy library, which the Baudelaire orphans take a liking to. She has a dream of being an actress and that is her downfall, or is it? The thing I like about Lemony Snicket’s writing is that there’s always a problem, that looks so dark like the Baudelaire children are falling in a never ending hole engulfing them in obscurity and misfortune forever. But the Baudelaire orphans always hatch a plan to survive. There’s always that anticipation that keeps you going to see if there hardship continues. Will they survive? I really like how Snicket seems to make the character personas excel and the way no matter what

mistakes the Baudelaire children make, you’ll always root for them. The most exiting part is Count Olaf’s play “The Marvelous Marriage”. With the Glitz’s and Glam of showbiz. The rapid outfit and set changes, the monotonous performance and the stage lights, the gears particularly fascinated Violet. But to do you think this was all done out of kindness. No, like Lemony says this is a very unfortunate story and Count Olaf is not kind, he has motive. I also like how Violet is faced with a choice. A terrible choice between herself or her sister. All because of Count Olaf… that malicious man. The characters are witty and smart and are faced with terrible situations that they manage to get out of. The Baudelaire orphans are very brave going against Count Olaf wishes to safe themselves. This reminds me of when I don’t listen to my parents. Like on one weekend in the dead of night, my best friend and I crept to the fridge and slowly eased it open, (more like yanked it open.) We raided the fridge leaving no chocolate spared. We took the Kit Kats, Kinders, m&ms. We dashed to my room but as we ran we saw my mom, like the Baudelaire children we disobeyed our guardian save our selves. We need to save our selves so we showed the candy in our… pants. Every thing was in a wrapper, so it was just semi gross when we were eating it. But luckily we had another set of pajama pants under our other pajama pants. It was a dare. But like the Baudelaires we used ours wit to get of a situation.
