BOOK: The Slippery Slope (#10) by L. Snicket

[Frederick Muller <fmuller@TELLURIAN.NET>]

Snicket, Lemony._The Slippery Slope [A series of unfortunate
events #10]. HarperCollins, 2003 [0-06-441013-7]
In this 10th book of the series we continue on with the tales of
Violet, Klaus, and Sunn Baudelaire as they struggle again Count
Olaf.  Here we have Count Olaf and his henchmen (or henchpeople)
at top of a high mountain, having captured Sunny.  Violet and
Klaus are still trying to locate the Quagmire triplets while trying to
find more information about their parents death, the VFD, and the
"last safe place."  This 337 page book is once again fresh and
entertaining, full of work plays.  If you haven't purchased these
books for your upper elementary through Jr. High students, they
are missing out!  I can't believe they haven't asked for them.  The
only negative this I can mention about this book is that from book 8
on.. the books are not complete stories as the first 7 were.. these
last few leave you hanging on a cliff for the next installment.
