The Bad Beginning
By: Lemony Snikets
I think having eyes paint all over your house and tattooed on to your body does not create a good first impression. In fact if I were a Baudelaire I would be pretty scared. Once when I was younger I met a clown and they had this weird laugh and I made a horrible first impression, I was scared to go near him. But then he made me a cool balloon and I had fun. Unfortunately, the Baudelaire children have no such luck. They make a bad impression and it does not change throughout the book. The author writes in such a way that it provokes thought while enjoying but staying serious. I think she balances it very well. I predict that Count Olaf will not be able to get the Baudelaire fortune because although the children have bad luck they usually bypass the worst situations.
