Sunny Baudelaire is the youngest of the Baudelaire orphans in the children's books A Series of Unfortunate Events, along with her brother Klaus and her sister Violet. She is too young to talk, but her baby noises are translated by the narrator Lemony Snicket.

Sunny plays a very significant role in all books in A Series of Unfortunate Events books. Most of these involve her large teeth and utilization of them. She has used them for many impossile tasks, Although Sunny is very young, her cognitive abilities are unusually developed for her age, with her comprehension of their situations generally equalling that of Violet and Klaus. She cannot speak properly, yet what she says can occasionally be translated without any help. When she shouts "Velocity!" for instance, it means "Faster!" or "Quickly!". Often, she says amusing things, like "Busheney!" which means "You're an evil man with no concern whatsoever for other people!"

This character was represented on the film Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events by Kara & Shelby Hoffman. In the movie, her baby talk is translated through subtitles.
