Esta serie narra las vidas perpetuamente desafortunadas de tres huérfanos inteligentes y recursivos, Violet, Klaus y Sunny Baudelaire. Cada entrega los sumerge en nuevas desgracias y situaciones peligrosas mientras intentan evadir las garras del villano Conde Olaf. Las narrativas están impregnadas de humor negro, juegos de palabras ingeniosos y un sentido único de melodrama gótico. Es una exploración cautivadora de la resiliencia, el misterio y la naturaleza a menudo absurda de la adversidad.
Después de la repentina muerte de sus padres, los tres niños Baudelaire tiene que depender el uno del otro y su ingenio cuando resulta que el pariente lejano que es nombrado su tutor está decidido a utilizar cualquier medio necesario para conseguir sus fortunas.
Если вы решили прочесть эту книгу, знайте, что в один скверный пасмурный день на юных Бодлеров - Вайолет, Клауса и их маленькую сестричку Солнышко - обрушились несчастья. Страшный пожар лишил их дома и любящих родителей.
La vie des enfants Baudelaire démarre bien mal... Tout commence le jour où leurs parents disparaissent dans l'incendie de leur maison laissant leurs trois enfants à la tête d'une immense fortune. Et comme un malheur n'arrive jamais seul, les voilà confiés à leur oncle, le Comte Olaf, qui déploiera toutes les ruses pour s'emparer de leur richesse. Il faudra encore plus de malices aux trois enfants pour déjouer les tours pendables de cet étrange aristocrate... Pas de temps morts dans ce premier tome des désastreuses aventures des orphelins Baudelaire. Pas de temps non plus pour s'appesantir sur le triste sort des enfants. La place est à l'action et à la réflexion. Il faudra faire preuve de beaucoup d'intelligence pour se sortir des moments difficiles. Heureusement Violette, Klaus et Prunille ne manquent pas d'astuce ! Violette, l'aînée, a quatorze ans et adore les sciences. Elle a toujours une nouvelle invention en préparation. Le second, Klaus, dévore les livres et, à douze ans, il a déjà engrangé un savoir impressionnant. Enfin, la petite Prunille, "pas plus haute qu'une botte", utilise ses quatre dents pour mordre tout ce qui passe... Le monde vu avec des yeux d'enfants, c'est encore le meilleur moyen de le comprendre. Les enfants à partir de onze ans l'ont bien compris puisque les Orphelins Baudelaire ont déjà détrôné plusieurs fois Harry Potter des meilleures ventes aux États-Unis. Pas de fantastique ni de sorcellerie pourtant, les aventures des enfants Baudelaire se déroulent dans une époque qui n'est plus la nôtre mais ils nous en apprennent long sur la vie, sans morales ni leçons. C'est un plaisir de les suivre même si leur vie est loin d'être rose, le style de Lemony Snicket est toujours subtil et plein d'humour et rappelle un peu Roald Dahl dans James et la grosse pêche . Il y a fort à parier que Lemony Snicket deviendra rapidement un classique de la littérature jeunesse ! À partir de 11 ans. --Nadia Krovnikoff
The siblings endure a car accident, a terrible smell, a deadly serpent, a long knife, a brass reading lamp, and the re-appearance of a person they hoped to never see again.
A story that includes a hurricane, a signalling device, hungry leaches, cold cucumber soup, a horrible villain and a doll named Pretty Penny.
Mr Poe delivers the three Baudelaire orphans, Violet, Klaus and little Sunny, to their new guardian, the owner of the Lucky Smells Lumbermill in Paltryville. But far from living in the mill, they quickly discover they will be working in it.
As their outrageous misfortune continues, the Baudelaire orphans are shipped off to a miserable boarding school, where they befriend the two Quagmire triplets and find that they have been followed by the dreaded Count Olaf
WARNING: LISTENING TO THIS TAPE WILL ONLY MAKE YOU WEEP...Dear Listener, If you are looking for a story about cheerful youngsters spending a jolly time at boarding school, look elsewhere. Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire are intelligent and resourceful children, and you might expect that they would do very well at school. Don't. For the Baudelaires, school turns out to be another miserable episode in their unlucky lives. Truth be told, within the chapters that make up this dreadful story, the children will face snapping crabs, strict punishments, dripping fungus, comprehensive exams, violin recitals. S.O.R.E., and the metric system. It is my solemn duty to stay up all night reading my history of these three hapless youngsters into a microphone, but you may be more comfortable getting a good night's sleep. In that case, you should probably listen to something else. With all due respect, LEMONY SNICKET
Within this story, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire encounter a darkened staircase, a red herring, some friends in a dire situation, three mysterious initials, a liar with an evil scheme, a secret passageway and parsley soda.
Новая перемена в судьбе Вайолет, Клауса и Солнышко Бодлер: они теперь будут жить в одном из самых фешенебельных районов города в огромной квартире на самом верху многоэтажного дома. Их новые опекуны — Джером и Эсме Скволор — люди вроде бы и неплохие, но и они, как и прежние опекуны, не в состоянии защитить сирот от коварных происков Олафа и его гнусных сообщников. И снова впереди у Бодлеров несчастья — железная клетка, где томятся их друзья, темные лестницы, статуя красной рыбы и бесконечные разочарования.
Under a new government program based on the saying "It takes a village to raise a child," the Baudelaire orphans are adopted by an entire town, with disastrous results.
Fleeing the village of VFD, after some time in the Deluxe cell for a murder they did not commit, the Baudelaires hide with the Volunteers Fighting Disease on their way to the Heimlich Hospital. Addressed by Babs, who can only be contacted through an intercom speaker on a desk, the orphans start work with the near-sighted Hal in the hospital library of records. Hal says he remembers a file in the records to do with the Snicket fires, but before the children can find it, Babs is suddenly replace by Mattathias - none other than Count Olaf - who plans to inspect every employee in the hospital. Staying late to find the file, the Baudelaires find a picture of their parents with Jacques Snicket, and another, partly obscured figure who may be a writer. But at that moment Esme Squalor arrives - Klaus and Sunny escape, but Violet is led to the operating theatre for a cranioectomy. Disguising themselves, Klaus and Sunny manage to rescue the unconscious Violet, but not before Esme has set fire to the library of records, adding arson to the false charges now facing the children. Chased through the now burning hospital, they make their escape, only to discover that the only way out is to hide in the trunk of Count Olaf's car - possibly the most dangerous place of all. schovat popis
The word carnivorous which appears in the title of this book, means "meat eating" and once you have read such a bloodthirsty word, there is no reason to read any further
The Barnes & Noble Review For fans of that slippery author Lemony Snicket, Book the Ninth is here, and it's completely (but wonderfully) dreadful. When the Baudelaire Orphans finally make it out of Count Olaf's car trunk (from Book the Eighth), they wind up at the horribly perilous Caligari Carnival. Trying to avoid capture but desperate to find out more information about a possible surviving parent, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny pose as circus freaks, only to be humiliated in front of visitors and pushed to the brink of consumption by lions. Fortunately, though, the three discover a few surprises about fortune-telling Madame Lulu, who offers a faint clue about V.F.D. and even the Snicket family itself. Snicket fans will be in Ninth Heaven. Again, it's a sad state of affairs for the Baudelaires, but there are some fascinating morsels of hope, plus a few small surprises that might help link it all together. With riveting suspense, wicked intentions, and gullible freaks, The Carnivorous Carnival is definitely an installment that can't be missed. Matt Warner
Dear Reader,Like handshakes, house pets, or raw carrots, many things are preferable when not slippery. Unfortunately, in this miserable volume, I am afraid that Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire run into more than their fair share of slipperiness during their harrowing journey up -- and down -- a range of strange and distressing mountains. In order to spare you any further repulsion, it would be best not to mention any of the unpleasant details of this story, particularly a secret message, a toboggan, a deceitful trap, a swarm of snow gnats, a scheming villain, a troupe of organized youngsters, a covered casserole dish, and a surprising survivor of a terrible fire. Unfortunately, I have dedicated my life to researching and recording the sad tale of the Baudelaire Orphans. There is no reason for you to dedicate yourself to such things, and you might instead dedicate yourself to letting this slippery book slip from your hands into a nearby trash receptacle, or deep pit. With all due respect,Lemony Snicket
The eleventh grim installment in the series. Prepare yourself to hear more about the mystery of VFD than you really want to know.
This is the 12th book in Lemony Snicket's 'Series of Unfortunate Events'.
Lost at sea, the Baudelaire orphans, along with the evil Count Olaf, wash up on the shore of an island populated by an oddly placid group of inhabitants, and they try to decide whether or not they are truly safe.
Part of "A Series of Unfortunate Events," this last book lets you know what unpleasantries befall the charming and clever Baudelaire children.
Подобно скрипичному концерту, Римской империи и пищевому отравлению всё рано или поздно приходит к логическому концу. Вот и большое приключение Бодлеров близко к своему завершению. Сирот едва не загрызли львы на Кровожадном Карнавале, они чуть не погибли в Змеином Зале, кое-как отбились от пиявок озера Лакримозе, с трудом уцелели в Мертвых Горах, еле-еле спаслись из Угрюмого Грота, насилу вырвались из горящего отеля «Развязка»… Что будет с ними теперь? Нет, мы не станем говорить заранее, счастливый у книги конец или не очень. Ведь каждый читатель ждет своего заветного финала, а на всех, как известно, не угодишь. Остается надеяться, что у Бодлеров все будет хорошо, ведь они такие славные ребята!
Within the pages of this omnibus, readers will discover all three books upon which the movie Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events is based: The Bad Beginning, The Reptile Room, and The Wide Window. Like the movie, this thick volume tells an unhappy tale about three very unlucky children, who despite being perfectly well-mannered are perfectly ill-fated. From the very beginning of Book the First, when the children learn of aterrible fire, continuing on to the last page of Book the Third, disaster lurks at their heels. Unlike the movie, however, this book can be hidden under a bed where no one will ever see it again.
Top secret—only for readers deeply interested in the Baudelaire case. How I pity these readers. With all due respect, Lemony Snicket
NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES A Warning from the Would you rather sprain your ankle, bruise your hip, and lose a toe to frostbite on the same day? Or would you rather have these accidents happen on three different days? This collection of volumes seven through nine in A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket is the equivalent of having three ghastly accidents right in a row. Contained here are such unpleasantries as kidnapping, disguise, murder, paperwork, another disguise, heart-shaped balloons, false allegations, stiletto heels, a shattered crystal ball, a cryptic map, an irritating song, and quite a few more disguises, all bundled together into a continuous barrage of horror and dismay. The more sensible approach would be to read The Vile Village , The Hostile Hospital , and The Carnivorous Carnival months or even years apart from one another, so you have time to recuperate from the misery each volume offers—or better yet, to turn your eyes away from Mr. Snicket's work and find a literary experience that would cause you no distress whatsoever.

NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES A Warning from the Publisher: If you have come this far, it is likely too late. Readers who have experienced the first nine volumes in A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket are usually so weakened by their dreadful knowledge of the Baudelaire orphans' story that they spend most of their time moaning and weeping, and have no strength to read The Slippery Slope , The Grim Grotto , or The Penultimate Peril . If, by chance, your moaning and weeping is more or less under control, there is no need to further risk your physical, emotional, and literary health by reading volumes 10 through 12. It would be better to regain your strength by spending your time indulging in less alarming activities, such as whistling or making cupcakes for the elderly. There is no need to expose yourself to more atrocities, not after all you've been through already.
