My favorite thing about this book: the singing Volunteers Fighting Disease who hand out ballooons and whatnot at the hospital --OR-- the cranioectomy. YES - CRANIOECTOMY! Only something simultaneously so silly and vile could be concocted by the sinister Count Olaf. I am also loving his "girlfriend" as she is transforming into the Harley Quinn to Olaf's Joker with each book. She is E-V-I-L!!! We are in it deep now with the Baudelaire's now!

"Tra la la, fiddly dee, hope you get will soon... ho ho ho, hee hee hee, have a heart-shaped ballooooon!"
