This third book in the "New Style" series offers a panoramic look at some of the most innovative cabin designs. While cottages and bungalows can be primary residences, cabins are distinctly getaway homes. They are often constructed in remote locations without all of the modcons.

These wonderful homes reflect a range of sizes, cutting-edge designs, and sustainable materials while maintaining the warm feeling evoked by the traditional cabin.

Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are intelligent children. They are charming, and resourceful, and have pleasant facial features. Unfortunately, they are exceptionally unlucky. In the first two books alone, the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune, a lumpy bed, a deadly serpent, a large brass reading lamp, a long knife, and a terrible odour. In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an exquisitely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent, hilarious and deftly crafted. Never before has a tale of three likeable and unfortunate children been quite so enchanting, or quite so uproariously unhappy.
