My kid loves these books. As a parent I have tried to instill the love of reading into my son and it has gotten easier overtime and we are reaping the benefits of the improved reading. Sometimes it was difficult to match the content level with his advanced reading level in addition to his interest in the content itself, however these books have seemed to be a perfect storm of sorts. He is 9 but reading at a 12th grade level and it wasn't until this series that we really saw a passion for reading show, he always liked it and did it daily but never sought it out as feverishly as he did with this series, he is sharing the story with us in addition to laughing and enjoying himself. I highly recommend them and we now own them all.Tags : The Vile Village (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Book 7) [Lemony Snicket, Tim Curry] on Amazon.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. <strong>NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES</strong> Dear Reader, You have undoubtedly picked up this book by mistake,Lemony Snicket, Tim Curry,The Vile Village (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Book 7),HarperChildren's Audio,0060566221,Family - Siblings,Adoption,Audiobooks (Unabridged),Baudelaire, Klaus (Fictitious character),Baudelaire, Sunny (Fictitious character),Baudelaire, Violet (Fictitious character),Brothers and sisters,Brothers and sisters;Fiction.,Children's audiobooks,Children's audiobooks.,Humorous stories,Orphans,Orphans;Fiction.,Action & Adventure - General,Children's Audio - 9-12,Children: Grades 4-6,Family - Orphans & Foster Homes,Fiction,JUVENILE FICTION Action & Adventure General,JUVENILE FICTION Family Orphans & Foster Homes,JUVENILE FICTION Family Siblings,JUVENILE FICTION Humorous Stories,Juvenile Fiction,Juvenile FictionFamily - Orphans & Foster Homes,Juvenile FictionFamily - Siblings,Juvenile FictionHumorous Stories,Audio: Juvenile
The Vile Village A Series of Unfortunate Events Book 7 Lemony Snicket Tim Curry 9780060566227 Books Reviews
I ordered a "Used-Good" copy of the Vile Village and if this is an example of what passes for "Good" then Count Olaf is Kind and Caring Guardian. Dog eared pages, peeling cover and a distinct crease through the entire volume that is representative of being left at the bottom of a locker under several pairs of shoes. Buyer beware.
The seventh book of despair and woe that has developed a cult like following, finds Mr Poe at wits end as to what to do with Violet,Klaus, and Sunny. It seems no relative wants to take them in because of the great bad luck they bring with them. So he sends them off to a village of their choosing. A village because according to wisdom that Mr Poe has heard, "It takes a village to raise a child". The village the children choose holds special interest to them because it's called V.F.D. The initials the Quagmire triplets had told them held great significance...
What follows is disaster upon disaster, told with only the wickedest humor that Lemony Snicket can employ. I'm finding the last three books or so have been even more enjoyable than the first. And the clues keep mounting up, to the secrets behind V.F.D., and the evil Count Olaf.
Purchased for my 5th grade classroom library. Student favorite!
Some of these haven't been the most interesting story. I really liked this one. It seemed like things kind of picked up and we got more of the story. I'm excited to read the next with my son. He is loving these.
The Vile Village is the 7th book in the Lemony Snicket Series of Unfortunate Events. The Boudelaire children find themselves in a strange village where crows are loved and the townsfolk have thousands of silly rules you must follow - or get burned at the stake. Their guardian? The entire village, that believes "It takes a village to raise a child." But as soon as the Baudelaires arrive they are put in the care of a timid cleaning man and made to work as his assistants - cleaning the entire town!
The village is told about Count Olaf from the start, so that they could keep an eye out for him. When the villagers do find Count Olaf, the Baudelaires are accused of his murder. The Vile Village is clever, exciting and very creative. Characters are well done, as is the peculiar setting. Excellent for childrens' reading, and adults as well.
Having exhausted all the relatives the Beaudelaire orphans have, and being quite out of original ideas if what to do with them, Mr. Poe decides that it would be best for Sunny, Klaus and Violet if he lets a village raise the children. For the Baudelaire orphans, its "out of the frying pan, into the fire." While in the village, the Baudelaires discover more clues about VFD (perhaps discovering its meaning?), and are close on the trail of the Quagmire triplets (twins?).
After 7 books, it seems Snicket is getting a bit formulaic the orphans get a fresh start, there is new hope (albeit in uncomfortable situations), Count Olaf shows up, and the orphans narrowly escape. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the book. As Snicket fans would expect, the book is full of his clever writing, witty remarks about adults (and their seemingly bizarre behaviour), and literary allusions. This, more than the story itself, kept me engaged. However, I hope some new plot device can be found to keep readers involved in the series - it IS morbid fun.
My 8 year old and I are enjoying this series. They are dark but in an amusing way. It's hard to say why they are appealing but they are. The three children are resourceful and with ingenuity figure out how to escape the evil Count Olaf on their own. A few of the grown ups are well meaning and kind but they are mostly ineffectual, inefficient and useless. I guess what we like is the fact that the kids are clever and solve their problems with little help from grown ups. They may try some tactic that doesn't work so they try something else. Each child has their own speciality and different situations call for different tactics. They work well as a team, sharing the hardships and responsibilities.
The author does some interesting things like using big words and stopping to give the definition. Sometimes the definition is slightly skewed toward fitting the story and even that makes it amusing.
