Two Baudelaire orphans, Klaus and Violet, are rolling down the Mortmain Mountains in the Valley of the Four Drafts in a trailer. What will they do to avoid death and how will they catch up to Count Olaf who has snatched Sunny?

All of these questions and more are answered in Lemony Snicket's novel, The Slippery Slope. This time readers will see the comeback of a bratty, message deliverer ("you cakesniffers!") and more suprises that are much too shocking to reveal. Among those the meaning of V.F.D. Or one of the many meanings!

Readers of the "Unfortunate Series" will be delighted with this newest novel (as of Oct '03). I enjoyed this novel from start to finish although many unfortunate things happen to the Baudelaires,like always! In this review, "always" means "in any book written by Lemony Snicket to date with perhaps the exception of his autobiography."

For those who are curious to learn more about the Baudelaire tale will be sure to keep reading....

This book is about 3 children that have lost their parents and have been passed around and around to different people but Count Olaf keeps trying to kidnap them so he can get the money their parents left behind.

This book told me a lot. You need to read all of them to know everything. Snicket makes sure that if he uses a word that he thinks no one will know he gives u a meaning to it. I really can't wait till number 11 comes out so I can know how it ends.

It started with Violet and Klaus Baudelaire rolling down the mortmain mountains in caravan. Violet thoght of an invention and saved them. They found Quigly Quagmire(who they thought was dead)and he showed them where the V.F.D. headquarters were.They ended up finding their younger sister,Sunny(who was captured by Count Olaf). This book was very interesting to me.

Some people may find themselves even more frustrated at the end of this tenth and longest installment in the series. Once again this book is more great fun as Sunny is held captive by Olaf, and Klaus and Violet set out to rescue her. Some new characters are introduced, and some more secrets are revealed regarding VFD. It seems strange to say that I missed reading about their misery, but I did, and it's glad to have them back. One can only hope that by the end of this planned thirteen book series, the orphans will find a very fortunate ending.

Poor Sunny, Klaus, and Violet. They are stuck on top of a mountian known as the Slippery Slope. They just got out of the caravan of the freaks from the circus and now they are searching for answers. Answers to the VFD, to the new friend they have found. Their new ally could be one of the triplets that the orphans went to school with.
This is a heart pounding, edge of your seat book till the very back cover. Mr. Snicket has once again captivated the minds of young readers everywhere. If you don't read this book, you will have no idea what you are missing. READ THIS BOOK NOW!!!!!

IT WAS GREAT! Sunny was captured by olaf and to cook him and his troupe! While Klaus and Violet try to stop a caravan falling off a mountain with the help pf Violet's invention. then they go to a cave and meet with the Snow Scouts. ("move cakesniffers!") Also they meet a new friend. (i'm not reffering to Carmelita, even though she's in a story) Will the 4 orphans make it. oh yea, they find something out about Quigley Quagmire who was THOUGHT to be dead. Maybe that's why i put 4 orpans. Some romance Violet and... The baudelaires and 1 quagmire find out about some drastic things of a sugar bowl, V.F.D. (Volunteer fire department) and about the V.F.D. head quarters. Go ahead and read the book for better entertainment!!!!!!!!!11

This book was fun to read. It has it's own little mystery and adventure happening and the author tells this story different from any book you have ever read! Lemony Snicket was the best person to write this book and I hope you enjoy it!
