(71) The Wide Window by Lemony Snicket

-The third book of A Series of Unfortunate Events-

After the disaster with Uncle Monty, the three orphans were taken to Aunty Josephine who lived by Lake Lachrymose. Due to the Aunt's fear of fire, they hardly have any good thing to eat.

Count Olaf did not give up. He turned up as another character and frightened Aunt Jo into fleeing and hiding in the caves. After the stint of being given too many grammar lessons, the orphans had to leave as Aunt Jo proved to be negligent and irresponsible carer.

By this book, we can see that the orphans were forced by circumstances into becoming resourceful survivors. It is indeed true that adversity builds character.
