 "The Slippery Slope"
by Lemony Snicket - unabridged
audiobook (books on tape). Read by the Tim Curry.
"A Series of Unfortunate
Events" contains a total of 13 stories presented in a a
tongue in cheek way and is intended for older children (middle
school, about 10 years old) and a wry sense of humor. Here is
the description from the back of audiobook No 10, "The Slippery
Slope."
"Dear Listener,
Like handshakes or housepets,
many things are preferable when not slippery. Unfortunately,
in this miserable volume, I am afraid that Violet, Klaus, and
Sunny Baudelair run into more than their fair share of slipperiness
during their harrowing journey up -- and down -- a range of strange
and distressing mountains.
It would be best not to
mention any of the unpleasant details of this story, particularly
a secret message , a swarm of snow gnats, a scheming villain,
a covered caserole dish, and a surprising survivor of a terrible
fire.
Unfortunately, I have dedicated
my life to researching and recording the sad tale of the Baudelair
Orphans. There is no reason for you to dedicate yourself to such
things, and you might instead dedicated yourself to letting this
slippery audio slip from your hands into a nearby trash receptacle,
or deep pit."
With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket"
