For a long time I did not cut it, but when I saw what looked like the Baudelaires, I just had to cut them out. Towards the back of the book there are plain dolls that you can customize to look like yourself and different backgrounds for the dolls.

I glued the two circus pages into a box to make a shadow box for this book. You can also store your paper dolls in the box. I also noticed that I could dress the Baudelaires up like their disguises in the book. Sunny is a wolf girl. I just cut an opening in the hedgehog doll to put Sunny&#8217;s head through to get her disguise. Violet and Klaus pretend to be conjoined twins. They are male in the book, but I think using the conjoined twins in this paper doll book is pretty close!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1919 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.comwp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2557-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2557\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2557-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2557-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2557-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2557-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2557.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Starting in book 9, Sunny develops an interest in cooking. I thought I would go through the books and look for the food that Sunny makes. In this book, she helps to make tom ka gai soup. Lemony Snicket (the author\/narrator) specifically mentions water chestnuts in the recipe which I didn&#8217;t really notice in any of the recipes I found online, but it did add a nice crunchy texture like the book mentions.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1920 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.comwp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2579-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2579\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2579-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2579-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2579-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lolliesorcandy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_2579-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I made this recipe based on a bunch of others.
