Book Description:
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

(I loved all of the books in this series. Much much better than the movies. This one is one of my favorites of them.
This is book 10 in a series of very unfortunate events for three orphaned children. An enjoyable read. Reviewed by my son who actually read the series.
A. J. C. (Hallelujah! Sunny, Klaus, and Violet are reunited in this tenth book of 'A Series of Unfortunate Events,' and they run into Quigley, one of the Quagmire triplets who was presumed dead. What will happen next? I really like these books! They're very original, a bit redundant, but good nonetheless. I highly recommend them!
"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."
The best book of the series, hilarious and geniously written
The tenth book in Snicket's "Series of Unfortunate Events", the Baudalaires are in for more unpleasant surprises... enough to make you cringe.
