Are things getting better for the Baudelaires? Could they possibly get worse?

Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are fortunate to have found a new guardian, Aunt Josephine. Even though she is unusually nervous, she seems nice enough.

And the children are also fortunate to be living so close to a large body of water. It's true that the lake is teeming with ferocious leeches -- but if the children wait one hour after eating, they can go swimming.

It is fortunate, too, that the siblings have such a splendid view of the big dark lake. Never mind the news that Hurricane Herman is racing toward them; Aunt Josephine's house is built sturdily on a cliff.

But above all, the children are lucky that they have a home now where they can rest up. For these are the unlucky Baudelaire orphans, and they will certainly need all their strength when everything that could possibly go wrong, suddenly does.

    The book is not a fun read, in a traditional sense. It makes you feel frustrated and worried as you find the three siblings fighting against the persistent Captain Olaf. However, as the narrator aptly put at the end of the story, the moral is to appreciate the fact that we have the support from our loved ones, and in the case of the siblings, the lesson is that they should appreciate each other.

    This lesson may seem trivial, however, it is so true. As we confront the harsh reality every moment, we may not be able to solve our problems and everything won't just turn out okay easily, all we can do is to appreciate our loved ones.
