Lemony Snicket’s A Series Of Unfortunate Events, The Bad Beginning, is an amazing children's book aimed at 10-12 year olds. It is about three unlucky Orphans who go and stay with filthy, vile Count Olaf. Sunny - the youngest - is an infant and has an unusual hobby of biting things. Klaus - the middle child - is very knowledgeable and loves to read although Violet - the oldest - has a knack for inventing things.
If you don't fancy reading the book, there is a whole movie on Netflix. With Emily Browning as Violet, Liam Aiken as Klaus and Jim Carrey as Count Olaf it is a shame not to watch it. As a class, we have been really enjoying this story and I would definitely recommend it.
