Product Description
Dear Reader, Before you throw this awful book to the ground and run as far away from it as possible, you should probably know why. This book is the only one which describes every last detail of the Baudelaire children's miserable stay at Heimlich Hospital, which makes it one of the most dreadful books in the world.
There are many pleasant things to read about, but this books contains none of them. Within its pages are such burdensome details as misleading newspaper headlines, unnecessary surgery, an intercom system, anesthesia, heart-shaped balloons, and some very startling news about such things.
I have sworn to research this story, and to write it down as best I can, so I should know that this book is something best left on the ground, where you undoubtedly found it.
With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket
Children's Literature
The eighth book in "A Series of Unfortunate Events" relates the story of the Baudelaire orphans, Violet, Klaus and Sunny, who are on the run. The police, the local townspeople and hospital staff as well as Count Olaf, the man they are accused of murdering, are in pursuit. The treacherous Count, who engineered their parent's demise, desperately wants the Beaudelaire family fortune; his only means of attaining it is to eliminate the children. Hiding in the Heimlich Hospital, the children discover a clue that suggests one of their parents may still be alive. While trying to unravel this mystery, Violet is recaptured by one of Count Olaf's evil assistants who plans to "do her in" during an experimental operation in the hospital's surgical theater. Klaus and Sunny bravely rescue their sister, and the children save themselves by cleverly using materials on hand. Reminiscent of a melo-drama, this tongue-in-check thriller matches the children's wits against dastardly and devious villains. However, the story line is at times hard to follow and meets as many obstacles as the main characters with the author's frequent intrusions, stream of consciousness wanderings, ponderous explications of previous plots and endless warnings, all coupled with a disposition toward dubious double entendre. 2001, HarperCollins, $14.89 and $9.95. Ages 9 to 12. Reviewer: Pamela Jewett
School Library Journal
Another roller coaster of perils for the three Baudelaire children. This time, they search for clues concerning their parents' deaths and attempt to clear themselves of a false murder charge while being pursued by the evil Count Olaf, who is after the family fortune. While attempting to escape arrest, the siblings join a volunteer group that sings and brings good cheer to patients and enter Heimlich Hospital, where they soon find themselves working in the Library of Records. A picture with an important clue surfaces just as Olaf's girlfriend discovers them and captures Violet, who is then readied for a cranioectomy, a surgery in which the head must be removed. The trio's talents are put to good use in a daring escape from the burning hospital. They jump into Olaf's car trunk in search of more clues and position themselves for the next exciting sequel. Readers will enjoy cheering for the clever youngsters, booing the diabolical villains, and noting the many new clues. The narrator's active voice is forever teasing readers by taking them to the edge of their seats and then purposely switching the subject or suggesting they stop reading all together. This volume can stand alone but few will be able to resist reading the next installment after the cliff-hanger ending.

Potential disaster lurks around every corner in this continuation of the always hilarious, often scary saga of the four Baudelaire children. This time the hugely popular series takes the children to the Heimlich Hospital, from which they must escape. Tim Curry is in his element performing Lemony Snicket. He offers abundant vocal impersonations, including real-sounding children; the excitement of squeaks, screams, and groans; and then, soothingly, a clear, warm narrative voice. Ideal for children and parents with imagination and a sense of the absurd. A.C.S. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine |
