What is the theme of sue bad beginning?

Answer 1

The Bad Beginning is a dull theme, black and white if you prefer. It consists of three young children; Violet Baudelaire, Klaus Baudelaire and Sunny Baudelaire. Their treachery begins at Briny Beach when they receive the terrible news that their parents have perished in a fire. They are then put into Count Olaf's care by the Baudelaire parents' friend Mr. Poe. With the best of his intentions he still persists that the children should be left in the horrendous mans care. Count Olaf forces the youngsters to do chores and is terribly rude to them. Later in the story Count Olaf attempts to marry Violet. He is then caught by the audience and runs away. This is where their cycle of unfortunate events begins. So, the The Bad Beginnings theme is sad because of the, nervousness and the feeling of being trapped to the children.
