Was disappointed to find that this was another book about a pair of orphans, but the tenderness of their caregivers, Tiller and Sairy, made it worth reading. Would be great to use if discussing relationships in the middle school classroom.(less)

I had read up to this book in the series before and was excited to pick it up again. Forgot how fun it was to get lost in the thick and dreadful plot of the Baudelaire Orphans. Will apparently have to read the last book in the series to get more answers, however. (less)
