Editorial Review

The Reptile Room begins where Lemony Snicket's The Bad Beginning ends… on the road with the three orphaned Baudelaire children as they are whisked away from the evil Count Olaf to face “an unknown fate with some unknown relative.” But who is this Dr. Montgomery, their late father's cousin's wife's brother? “Would Dr. Montgomery be a kind person? they wondered. Would he at least be better than Count Olaf? Could he possibly be worse?” He certainly is not worse, and in fact when the Baudelaire children discover that he makes coconut cream cakes, circles the globe looking for snakes to study, and even plans to take them with him on his scientific expedition to Peru, the kids can't believe their luck. And, if you have read the first book in this Series of Unfortunate Events, you won't believe their luck either. Despite the misadventures that befall these interesting, intelligent, resourceful orphans, you can trust that the engaging narrator will make their story–suspenseful and alarming as it is–a true delight. The Wide Window is next, and more are on their way. (Ages 9 and older) –Karin Snelson
