Suddenly, Jared hears a strange sound, and he sees the text Click clack, watch your back written in the dust on the desk. He becomes terrified, and he suddenly hears how Mallory and Simon send the dumbwaiter up again, making it possible for Jared to get back down. He tells them about the riddle and the text on the desk, but only Simon believes him.The children's' mother suspects that Jared is the guilty one, as he and Mallory had an argument last night.Thinking of the part Up and up and up again, he goes up to the attic, where he finds an old, dusty book hidden in the false bottom of a chest. The title reads: Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You. He looks in it, and finds that the book is about supernatural beings or Faeries.

A confused Jared follows her down to the kitchen, which is a real mess. Chocolate syrup and orange juice has wet down the walls, eggs have been thrown at the windows, plates and glasses have been broken and thrown out over the floor, and food leftovers lay everywhere. But the worst thing is that Simon's tadpoles he had caught by himself has been frozen in ice cubes and placed in the freezer, together with a note: Not very nice to ice the mice (Simon's mice, Jeffrey and Lemondrop, have disappeared). And, on the place where Jared had strayed flour, tiny footprints is visible, but Helen simply cleans them up and drop the only evidence in a pile of rubbish. Despite that Jared says that it wasn't him, his mother orders him to take the garbage bags outside.He takes the things and carry them inside.Simon is sent up with the dumbwaiter in the kitchen, while Mallory and Jared discover a secret door through a linen closet that leads directly into the secret library.We hope you like what we made and that even if you don't, that you'll stop pinching us — and other things — and that if you have Jeffrey and Lemondrop to please take care of them because they are good mice.In the nights, their mother went patrolling in the corridors. But one day, when Helen went shopping and left Mallory in charge, they ran up to the secret study, and finds that the note is gone. Suddenly, Thimbletack the Brownie appears before them with a pair of leashes attached to Jeffrey and Lemondrop. The tiny Faerie warns them about the book and then disappear.

It's written at exactly a 4th grade level and my students love to read it. I have a pair of students who have read all the way to book 4 so far. The plot isn't scary and is full of lots of magic that they enjoy. Both boys and girls seem to enjoy the series equally. (less) But it's been years since I picked them up, and it's the first time I'm reading them with my son. And both of those things make a huge difference to my experience. First, and perhaps most importantly, my little boy likes them. He's about five an a half, which is younger than the target age for these books, but he's into them. (In the interest of full disclosure, Oot isn't the most critical of readers at this point in his life. He pretty much likes all But it's been years since I picked them up, and it's the first time I'm reading them with my son. He pretty much likes all books.) I like the books too. I think they do a great job of blending traditional folklore and the modern world. What's more, they borrow from the traditional lore, and expand on it in interesting ways. I'd forgotten the books were illustrated, and that really makes it nicer when reading them to my boy. It adds a lot to the experience. I wish I had thought to look through these books for some pointers before I did Slow Regard of Silent things with Nate Taylor. All that said, I have some quibbles with these books as a parent. Things that never occurred to me the first time I was reading them. I'll save those comments for the reviews I'll write of the later books in the series, as the issues I'm going to be talking about are more prevalent there.

Not to mention the first book ends with hardly an introduction; breaking the series into a five-book set feels like a cheap trick to make a profit, and I think the overall flow of the story suffers because of it. The Chronicles are not without merit; there is some enjoyable dialogue and the illustrations are terrific. I think the series could be truly engaging if the authors focused more on the story, rather than on spelling out the moral behind it. I think that this boo. Happens every day. Also, I'm no expert in the sport of fencing, but I'm pretty sure that they don't call the weapon a sword, and someone who is serious about fencing, as Mallory apparently is, would know that. I think that this book reads a little young, also. Not just for the length, which is REALLY short, but also in the style and feel of the writing. The characters are 9 year old twins and a 13 year old older sister, but if I had to peg an age range for the target audience, I'd go with 6 or 7 year olds. Still, this is probably a fun and cute story for kids. https://javisintlmedia.com/images/98-maxima-manual-transmission-for-sale.pdf I'm just less than impressed by it, considering that I'm a crotchety 30-something cat lady. Now I needed something light and fun, to get myself back into a rhythm of reading every day -and this is exactly that. The books aren't so much individual stories of their own, but instead more like five parts of one story, but I guess that way they are quick and easy to get through. I like the characters and the setting as well, feels kind of nostalgic in a way. Now I needed something light and fun, to get myself back into a rhythm of reading every day -and this is exactly that.

The three main characters, Jared, Simon, and Mallory, are so relatable and realistic. I can relate to each of them in a different way and I think most readers will feel the same. Overall, I highly recommend this series to everyone of any age. The Field Guide is such an outstanding start to a series and I can see myself rereading this book a hundred times and still enjoy it just as much as the first time. I'm pretty sure a boggart is stealing my left socks. OKAY, NO. That's not why I'm researching it. I want to write children's books, and mine turn out too weird, so I thought I'd read more children's books and get a hang of the voice and style. This was an epic example. (It can't be more then 10K, right?) I really enjoyed it. I've watched the movie, and the first book is.what? The first 20 minutes of the movie?! It's such an adorably cute book. But now I'm imp I'm pretty sure a boggart is stealing my left socks. OKAY, NO. That's not why I'm researching it. But now I'm impressed at how close the movie was following the book. Good stuff. I like the quirkiness of the fencing. Adoring the illustrations. And the poems! My only complaint is the mother. She's a bit weird. I mean, she was out shopping for groceries and got mad at them for being out of bed at night and in the kitchen. MAD. Angry? Why! They were looking for a squirrel in the walls, and goodness sakes, what type of grocery shop is open at night. Why couldn't she have gone in the morning. And why did she never believe her children?! Parents like that in books frustrate me. Anyway. Adorable. Research done. I think I'll read a few more.you know. To solve what that boggart's doing with my socks. So when I saw it in one of my local charity shops I immediately bought it. I definitely don't regret it. I think I loved it just as much as my child self. Maybe because I am such a huge fan of all things paranormal. I like that there are drawings throughout the book which are absolutely gorgeous by the way.:) It follows the adventure of two brothers and a sister into the magical world right beside the house they live in.

Things get interesting when they hear things in the walls and Jared discovers a field guide to faeries. The plot is simple because this is focused toward children, but well detailed and clever. The writing is also really excellent and engaging. Although targeted at a younger audience, this can easily be enjoyed by adults. I hope that the remainder of the series holds the same charm as this first installment. We're excited to share these books with our six and seven year old niece and nephew, who we think will really enjoy the story and humor. The illustrations are also really great and should work well when trying to engage younger children in the story. I highly recommend this first book. I finished it pretty quickly. I've read many middle grade books this year, and this one wasn't really anything special. I think it was more of an introductory book than anything. I hope the following books will be more fun.

I was curious when I picked this up, to see how much of the story I remembered and how accurate the film had been. This story follows the Grace family, who were forced to move into the house of a crazy Great Aunt when they couldn't afford to live in New York after the divorce. The three siblings; Jared and Simon, nine year old twins and their older sister Malory, thirteen, were perfect. They were the typical bickering siblings who drove each other crazy but also supported and trusted each other. The main character in this book was Jared, who was treated as the black sheep of the family, suspected by their mother to have anger issues after getting into a fight at his last school. He was so cute and misunderstood, blamed for the mischief and mayhem an angry Brownie created in their new home. I was surprised by just how short this book was, I finished it in one very short sitting, so I'm sure it will be easy enough to get through the series. It was fast-paced and exciting, covering what ended up being the very beginning of the movie. I'm intrigued to see more of the fantastical creatures and the way the family situation progresses. I remember Aunt Lucinda was always a favourite of mine, so I can't wait until she appears! I'm sure I'll end up buying the complete set for mine!

It's a fun little mystery book with cool fantasy elements and it does a good job setting up the characters and premise at an incredibly fast speed without feeling rushed. The ending shows a lot of promise for the future of the series. My only complaint is that it ended way too soon. Just when it was about to get into the meat and bones of the fantasy side of things, it abruptly cuts off.And they don't want you to know about them. I love that this book takes the question of fairies and brownies and pixies seriously, it gives this story its power. I love the setting: the rambling old house out in the country, the secret room, the shadowy feeling that something is watching. And I love the format of this series, with the uneven edges to the pages, the small size of the books. They just feel cool. This is the first book of the series, and it starts off strong And they don't want you to know about them. This is the first book of the series, and it starts off strong. Subsequent books in the series were less interesting to me, I think this is a series you need to read all of in one fell swoop. This was really great! This was really great! That may sound an odd comment, but I am a book lover of the real deal books, not electronic ones. I love books you can hold in your hands, feel and smell the paper, books you can caress. It's just such a lovely size; I could hold it in one hand whilst I read. Even the fonts captured me.

This is the sort of book that I would have cherished as a young girl, collecting all of the series and placing them in a special spot on my bookshelf. I found this copy, in near perfect condition, at a thrift store for 50 cents. Initially I picked it up thinking it would be a good base for an altered book but it's a keeper. It is going on one of my (grownup) bookshelves. The story would also have captivated me as a young girl: three children and their newly-divorced mom move, out of necessity, into an older relative's practically abandoned Victorian home, where weird things happen and a mystery unfolds. I realized reading it as an adult that there is powerful marketing going on here; The Field Guide is just a tasty morsel to whet young readers' appetites so they'll want to buy the next in the series. That's cool. I once owned over 60 hardback Nancy Drews and loved every one of them. (I can't believe my mom let me sell them to a used bookstore when I was 14 and thought I had outgrown them. I weep still.) Lovely illustrations, fun mysterious story, beautiful presentation. I read it in an hour or two and enjoyed it very much. Made me remember how very much I loved to read as a child, especially tales like this that opened secret doors onto magic and mystery. Can't wait to read the rest of the series.

The story is about the Grace Children: Mallory who is 13 and the 9 year-old twins Jared and Simon. When their father leaves the family, mom and the kids move into the Spiderwick estate - a large crumbling mansion that they inherited from their “crazy” Aunt.

He isn’t handling the whole abandonment thing real well. One day Jared - comes across a book by Arthur Spiderwick - and it turns out to be a field guide to Faeries. The moment he opens this book strange, magical and sometimes painful things begin to happen. This is a really quick read and it’s easy to devour this book on a lunch break, bus ride or in a bubble bath. The illustrations are really what drew me into the book, but the story was good enough to keep me reading the other 4 books in the series. What I didn't realise (but should have) is that what occurs within the movie occurs across more than book one, looking forward to reading further when I get the books via the library or on sale. The illustrations were a nice touch and add to the tale unfolding. 99p on amazon. I've seen the movie a zillion times thanks to my sister, and was rather curious about the book.

Jared, known in his family as a trouble-maker ever since he began getting into fights at school, leads his twin brother and elder sister in a series of discoveries, as they find their great-great-uncle Arthur Spiderwick's hidden library, and then his field guide to the various species of faery. It is only when the siblings actually meet a faery - Thimbletack the erstwhile boggart, restored to his more benevolent brownie form - that Simon and Mallory are truly convinced that Jared has been telling them the truth. The first part of a five-volume work that is meant to be read as one long story, rather than as a series with discrete entries, The Field Guide does an excellent job of introducing readers to the three young heroes, briefly but ably capturing their differing personalities and interests. Fierce Mallory with her talent for fencing, dreamy Simon and his love of animals, and emotionally turbulent Jared, with his openness to new discoveries, all emerge as distinct and interesting characters, despite the brevity of the text. Black also succeeds in making the Spiderwick Estate feel like a real place - one the reader will want to visit and explore. A brief chapter-book for young readers just getting going with longer fiction, this is a book that will also interest older children, given the subject matter and presentation. The artwork, done in pen and ink by Tony DiTerlizzi, is just as engaging as the story, with a quirky appeal that reminded me quite a bit of the work of Chris Riddell - high praise, coming from me. Recommended to young fantasy lovers and children (or adults) who believe in faeries - just be sure to have the second volume of the story handy. With Holly Black, he created the middle-grade series, The Spiderwick Chro With Holly Black, he created the middle-grade series, The Spiderwick Chronicles, which has sold millions of copies, been adapted into a feature film, and has been translated in over thirty countries. The beginning of his storied career is showcased in Realms: The Roleplaying Game Art of Tony DiTerlizzi. He has been featured in Time magazine, USA Today, CNN, PBS, the BBC and The Today Show. For the feature film adaptation, see The Spiderwick Chronicles (film). They chronicle the adventures of the Grace children, twins Simon and Jared and their older sister Mallory, after they move into the Spiderwick Estate and discover a world of fairies that they never knew existed. The first book, The Field Guide, was published in 2003 and then followed by The Seeing Stone (2003), Lucinda's Secret (2003), The Ironwood Tree (2004), and The Wrath of Mulgarath (2004). Several companion books have been published including Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You (2005), Notebook for Fantastical Observations (2005), and Care and Feeding of Sprites (2006). A second series, entitled Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles includes The Nixie's Song (2007), A Giant Problem (2008), and The Wyrm King ( 2009).It opens in Maine, where nine-year-old identical twins Jared and Simon and their thirteen-year-old sister Mallory move into the decrepit Spiderwick Estate with their mother, Helen. On the first night, they discover a secret library on the second floor using a dumbwaiter. They later discover that the library connects to the rest of the house via a hidden door in a hall closet. A brownie named Thimbletack, who has lived in the house for years, becomes angry with the Grace children when they destroy his nest inside the walls, and Jared is blamed for the ensuing havoc wrought by the brownie in retaliation including assaults on Mallory, Simon, and the trashing of the kitchen. Following a clue in the form of a riddle -poem, Jared finds Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You in a secret compartment in a trunk in the attic. The Field Guide is an old hand-written and illustrated book with information on different types of faeries in the surrounding forest. The novel ends as the Grace children make amends with Thimbletack by building him a new home out of an old birdhouse. Thimbletack then warns them that the book which they found is dangerous and was not meant to be in the hands of mortals.After the Grace children ignore Thimbletack's warning to destroy the Guide, Simon is abducted by a group of goblins who live in the woods surrounding the house. After Jared and Mallory narrowly avoid being captured by the goblins, they go searching for Simon in the woods. On their way through the forest, they encounter a troll residing in the river by a decrepit stone bridge. Partially protected by the daylight, they are able to avoid it, but lose their fencing weapons. After encountering a wounded griffin, they find the goblin camp and a plethora of prisoners hanging in cages made from refuse from the trees. While trying to rescue Simon, they meet a prisoner named Hogsqueal, a hobgoblin, who convinces them to help him escape in exchange for his help in rescuing Simon. Hogsqueal offers to spit in their eyes, which gives them the Sight without using the stone. Hogsqueal distracts the goblins from the children's escape and in return, Jared, Simon and Mallory attract the goblins' attention away from Hogsqueal and then flee, leading the goblins back to the troll. Jared convinces the troll to let them escape in return for leading the goblins to him to eat. After they arrive home, Simon convinces them to return to the now empty camp to release the rest of the goblins' victims and they take the injured griffin to the carriage house. After confronting their scared and angry mother, they discover that Thimbletack, enraged at Jared's forceful taking of the seeing stone, has again become a Boggart and reverted to his mischievous ways.The novel opens upon an argument among the Grace children on whether or not to destroy the Field Guide, Jared alone insisting that they keep it. They eventually agree to consult their Great-Aunt Lucinda, who is now staying in a psychiatric hospital and is the only person whom they know to have been in contact with Arthur Spiderwick, who was her father. When they ask her about Arthur, it is revealed that the last she saw him was one day when she was a little girl, on which Arthur had set out from the house on foot and never returned. She is horrified that the Grace family is staying at the Estate, which she says is not safe, and even more worried when she hears that they have the Guide, believing her father to have taken it with him when he disappeared. However, when Jared takes the book from his backpack to show her, it has been replaced with another book, presumably by Thimbletack. They finally reach a river grove inhabited by elves, who threaten to trap one of the children there unless the guide is given to them. The children flee, however, promising to bring the Guide as soon as they can. On passing by the Phooka again, one of his riddles leads them to think that Arthur is still alive, but imprisoned in Faerie with the elves.The family attends Mallory's fencing meet at school.

He goes down and out on the yard, where Simon and Mallory are fencing.Late at night, after Jared has read the whole Guide, he goes down to the kitchen and strays flour on the floor in hope of catching some evidence in form of the Boggart's footprints. He also remember reading that Brownies like to drink milk, so he also leaves a bowl with milk at the floor.

A confused Jared follows her down to the kitchen, which is a real mess. Chocolate syrup and orange juice has wet down the walls, eggs have been thrown at the windows, plates and glasses have been broken and thrown out over the floor, and food leftovers lay everywhere. But the worst thing is that Simon's tadpoles he had caught by himself has been frozen in ice cubes and placed in the freezer, together with a note: Not very nice to ice the mice (Simon's mice, Jeffrey and Lemondrop, have disappeared). And, on the place where Jared had strayed flour, tiny footprints is visible, but Helen simply cleans them up and drop the only evidence in a pile of rubbish. Despite that Jared says that it wasn't him, his mother orders him to take the garbage bags outside.He takes the things and carry them inside.Simon is sent up with the dumbwaiter in the kitchen, while Mallory and Jared discover a secret door through a linen closet that leads directly into the secret library.We hope you like what we made and that even if you don't, that you'll stop pinching us — and other things — and that if you have Jeffrey and Lemondrop to please take care of them because they are good mice.In the nights, their mother went patrolling in the corridors.

Suddenly, Thimbletack the Brownie appears before them with a pair of leashes attached to Jeffrey and Lemondrop. The tiny Faerie warns them about the book and then disappear.

The plot isn't scary and is full of lots of magic that they enjoy. Both boys and girls seem to enjoy the series equally. (less) But it's been years since I picked them up, and it's the first time I'm reading them with my son. And both of those things make a huge difference to my experience. First, and perhaps most importantly, my little boy likes them. He's about five an a half, which is younger than the target age for these books, but he's into them. (In the interest of full disclosure, Oot isn't the most critical of readers at this point in his life. He pretty much likes all But it's been years since I picked them up, and it's the first time I'm reading them with my son. He pretty much likes all books.) I like the books too. I think they do a great job of blending traditional folklore and the modern world. What's more, they borrow from the traditional lore, and expand on it in interesting ways. I'd forgotten the books were illustrated, and that really makes it nicer when reading them to my boy. It adds a lot to the experience. I wish I had thought to look through these books for some pointers before I did Slow Regard of Silent things with Nate Taylor. All that said, I have some quibbles with these books as a parent. Things that never occurred to me the first time I was reading them. I'll save those comments for the reviews I'll write of the later books in the series, as the issues I'm going to be talking about are more prevalent there.

Not to mention the first book ends with hardly an introduction; breaking the series into a five-book set feels like a cheap trick to make a profit, and I think the overall flow of the story suffers because of it. The Chronicles are not without merit; there is some enjoyable dialogue and the illustrations are terrific. I think the series could be truly engaging if the authors focused more on the story, rather than on spelling out the moral behind it. I think that this boo. Happens every day. Also, I'm no expert in the sport of fencing, but I'm pretty sure that they don't call the weapon a sword, and someone who is serious about fencing, as Mallory apparently is, would know that. I think that this book reads a little young, also. Not just for the length, which is REALLY short, but also in the style and feel of the writing. The characters are 9 year old twins and a 13 year old older sister, but if I had to peg an age range for the target audience, I'd go with 6 or 7 year olds. Still, this is probably a fun and cute story for kids. https://javisintlmedia.com/images/98-maxima-manual-transmission-for-sale.pdf I'm just less than impressed by it, considering that I'm a crotchety 30-something cat lady. Now I needed something light and fun, to get myself back into a rhythm of reading every day -and this is exactly that. The books aren't so much individual stories of their own, but instead more like five parts of one story, but I guess that way they are quick and easy to get through. I like the characters and the setting as well, feels kind of nostalgic in a way. Now I needed something light and fun, to get myself back into a rhythm of reading every day -and this is exactly that.

The three main characters, Jared, Simon, and Mallory, are so relatable and realistic. I can relate to each of them in a different way and I think most readers will feel the same. Overall, I highly recommend this series to everyone of any age. The Field Guide is such an outstanding start to a series and I can see myself rereading this book a hundred times and still enjoy it just as much as the first time. I'm pretty sure a boggart is stealing my left socks. OKAY, NO. That's not why I'm researching it. I want to write children's books, and mine turn out too weird, so I thought I'd read more children's books and get a hang of the voice and style. This was an epic example. (It can't be more then 10K, right?) I really enjoyed it. I've watched the movie, and the first book is.what? The first 20 minutes of the movie?! It's such an adorably cute book. But now I'm imp I'm pretty sure a boggart is stealing my left socks. OKAY, NO. That's not why I'm researching it. But now I'm impressed at how close the movie was following the book. Good stuff. I like the quirkiness of the fencing. Adoring the illustrations. And the poems! My only complaint is the mother. She's a bit weird. I mean, she was out shopping for groceries and got mad at them for being out of bed at night and in the kitchen. MAD. Angry? Why! They were looking for a squirrel in the walls, and goodness sakes, what type of grocery shop is open at night. Why couldn't she have gone in the morning. And why did she never believe her children?! Parents like that in books frustrate me. Anyway. Adorable. Research done. I think I'll read a few more.you know. To solve what that boggart's doing with my socks. So when I saw it in one of my local charity shops I immediately bought it. I definitely don't regret it. I think I loved it just as much as my child self. Maybe because I am such a huge fan of all things paranormal.

Things get interesting when they hear things in the walls and Jared discovers a field guide to faeries. The plot is simple because this is focused toward children, but well detailed and clever. The writing is also really excellent and engaging. Although targeted at a younger audience, this can easily be enjoyed by adults. I hope that the remainder of the series holds the same charm as this first installment. We're excited to share these books with our six and seven year old niece and nephew, who we think will really enjoy the story and humor. The illustrations are also really great and should work well when trying to engage younger children in the story. I highly recommend this first book. I finished it pretty quickly.

I was curious when I picked this up, to see how much of the story I remembered and how accurate the film had been. This story follows the Grace family, who were forced to move into the house of a crazy Great Aunt when they couldn't afford to live in New York after the divorce. The three siblings; Jared and Simon, nine year old twins and their older sister Malory, thirteen, were perfect. They were the typical bickering siblings who drove each other crazy but also supported and trusted each other. The main character in this book was Jared, who was treated as the black sheep of the family, suspected by their mother to have anger issues after getting into a fight at his last school. He was so cute and misunderstood, blamed for the mischief and mayhem an angry Brownie created in their new home. I was surprised by just how short this book was, I finished it in one very short sitting, so I'm sure it will be easy enough to get through the series. It was fast-paced and exciting, covering what ended up being the very beginning of the movie. I'm intrigued to see more of the fantastical creatures and the way the family situation progresses. I remember Aunt Lucinda was always a favourite of mine, so I can't wait until she appears! I'm sure I'll end up buying the complete set for mine!

It's a fun little mystery book with cool fantasy elements and it does a good job setting up the characters and premise at an incredibly fast speed without feeling rushed. The ending shows a lot of promise for the future of the series. My only complaint is that it ended way too soon. Just when it was about to get into the meat and bones of the fantasy side of things, it abruptly cuts off.And they don't want you to know about them. I love that this book takes the question of fairies and brownies and pixies seriously, it gives this story its power. I love the setting: the rambling old house out in the country, the secret room, the shadowy feeling that something is watching. And I love the format of this series, with the uneven edges to the pages, the small size of the books. They just feel cool. This is the first book of the series, and it starts off strong And they don't want you to know about them. This is the first book of the series, and it starts off strong. Subsequent books in the series were less interesting to me, I think this is a series you need to read all of in one fell swoop. This was really great! This was really great! That may sound an odd comment, but I am a book lover of the real deal books, not electronic ones. I love books you can hold in your hands, feel and smell the paper, books you can caress. It's just such a lovely size; I could hold it in one hand whilst I read. Even the fonts captured me.

This is the sort of book that I would have cherished as a young girl, collecting all of the series and placing them in a special spot on my bookshelf. I found this copy, in near perfect condition, at a thrift store for 50 cents. Initially I picked it up thinking it would be a good base for an altered book but it's a keeper. It is going on one of my (grownup) bookshelves. The story would also have captivated me as a young girl: three children and their newly-divorced mom move, out of necessity, into an older relative's practically abandoned Victorian home, where weird things happen and a mystery unfolds. I realized reading it as an adult that there is powerful marketing going on here; The Field Guide is just a tasty morsel to whet young readers' appetites so they'll want to buy the next in the series. That's cool. I once owned over 60 hardback Nancy Drews and loved every one of them. (I can't believe my mom let me sell them to a used bookstore when I was 14 and thought I had outgrown them. I weep still.) Lovely illustrations, fun mysterious story, beautiful presentation. I read it in an hour or two and enjoyed it very much. Made me remember how very much I loved to read as a child, especially tales like this that opened secret doors onto magic and mystery. Can't wait to read the rest of the series.

The story is about the Grace Children: Mallory who is 13 and the 9 year-old twins Jared and Simon. When their father leaves the family, mom and the kids move into the Spiderwick estate - a large crumbling mansion that they inherited from their “crazy” Aunt.

He isn’t handling the whole abandonment thing real well. One day Jared - comes across a book by Arthur Spiderwick - and it turns out to be a field guide to Faeries. The moment he opens this book strange, magical and sometimes painful things begin to happen. This is a really quick read and it’s easy to devour this book on a lunch break, bus ride or in a bubble bath. The illustrations are really what drew me into the book, but the story was good enough to keep me reading the other 4 books in the series. What I didn't realise (but should have) is that what occurs within the movie occurs across more than book one, looking forward to reading further when I get the books via the library or on sale. The illustrations were a nice touch and add to the tale unfolding. 99p on amazon. I've seen the movie a zillion times thanks to my sister, and was rather curious about the book.

Jared, known in his family as a trouble-maker ever since he began getting into fights at school, leads his twin brother and elder sister in a series of discoveries, as they find their great-great-uncle Arthur Spiderwick's hidden library, and then his field guide to the various species of faery. It is only when the siblings actually meet a faery - Thimbletack the erstwhile boggart, restored to his more benevolent brownie form - that Simon and Mallory are truly convinced that Jared has been telling them the truth. The first part of a five-volume work that is meant to be read as one long story, rather than as a series with discrete entries, The Field Guide does an excellent job of introducing readers to the three young heroes, briefly but ably capturing their differing personalities and interests. Fierce Mallory with her talent for fencing, dreamy Simon and his love of animals, and emotionally turbulent Jared, with his openness to new discoveries, all emerge as distinct and interesting characters, despite the brevity of the text. Black also succeeds in making the Spiderwick Estate feel like a real place - one the reader will want to visit and explore. A brief chapter-book for young readers just getting going with longer fiction, this is a book that will also interest older children, given the subject matter and presentation. The artwork, done in pen and ink by Tony DiTerlizzi, is just as engaging as the story, with a quirky appeal that reminded me quite a bit of the work of Chris Riddell - high praise, coming from me. Recommended to young fantasy lovers and children (or adults) who believe in faeries - just be sure to have the second volume of the story handy. With Holly Black, he created the middle-grade series, The Spiderwick Chro With Holly Black, he created the middle-grade series, The Spiderwick Chronicles, which has sold millions of copies, been adapted into a feature film, and has been translated in over thirty countries. The beginning of his storied career is showcased in Realms: The Roleplaying Game Art of Tony DiTerlizzi. He has been featured in Time magazine, USA Today, CNN, PBS, the BBC and The Today Show. For the feature film adaptation, see The Spiderwick Chronicles (film). They chronicle the adventures of the Grace children, twins Simon and Jared and their older sister Mallory, after they move into the Spiderwick Estate and discover a world of fairies that they never knew existed. The first book, The Field Guide, was published in 2003 and then followed by The Seeing Stone (2003), Lucinda's Secret (2003), The Ironwood Tree (2004), and The Wrath of Mulgarath (2004). Several companion books have been published including Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You (2005), Notebook for Fantastical Observations (2005), and Care and Feeding of Sprites (2006). A second series, entitled Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles includes The Nixie's Song (2007), A Giant Problem (2008), and The Wyrm King ( 2009).It opens in Maine, where nine-year-old identical twins Jared and Simon and their thirteen-year-old sister Mallory move into the decrepit Spiderwick Estate with their mother, Helen. On the first night, they discover a secret library on the second floor using a dumbwaiter. They later discover that the library connects to the rest of the house via a hidden door in a hall closet. A brownie named Thimbletack, who has lived in the house for years, becomes angry with the Grace children when they destroy his nest inside the walls, and Jared is blamed for the ensuing havoc wrought by the brownie in retaliation including assaults on Mallory, Simon, and the trashing of the kitchen. Following a clue in the form of a riddle -poem, Jared finds Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You in a secret compartment in a trunk in the attic. The Field Guide is an old hand-written and illustrated book with information on different types of faeries in the surrounding forest. The novel ends as the Grace children make amends with Thimbletack by building him a new home out of an old birdhouse. Thimbletack then warns them that the book which they found is dangerous and was not meant to be in the hands of mortals.After the Grace children ignore Thimbletack's warning to destroy the Guide, Simon is abducted by a group of goblins who live in the woods surrounding the house. After Jared and Mallory narrowly avoid being captured by the goblins, they go searching for Simon in the woods. On their way through the forest, they encounter a troll residing in the river by a decrepit stone bridge. Partially protected by the daylight, they are able to avoid it, but lose their fencing weapons. After encountering a wounded griffin, they find the goblin camp and a plethora of prisoners hanging in cages made from refuse from the trees. While trying to rescue Simon, they meet a prisoner named Hogsqueal, a hobgoblin, who convinces them to help him escape in exchange for his help in rescuing Simon. Hogsqueal offers to spit in their eyes, which gives them the Sight without using the stone. Hogsqueal distracts the goblins from the children's escape and in return, Jared, Simon and Mallory attract the goblins' attention away from Hogsqueal and then flee, leading the goblins back to the troll. Jared convinces the troll to let them escape in return for leading the goblins to him to eat. After they arrive home, Simon convinces them to return to the now empty camp to release the rest of the goblins' victims and they take the injured griffin to the carriage house. After confronting their scared and angry mother, they discover that Thimbletack, enraged at Jared's forceful taking of the seeing stone, has again become a Boggart and reverted to his mischievous ways.The novel opens upon an argument among the Grace children on whether or not to destroy the Field Guide, Jared alone insisting that they keep it. They eventually agree to consult their Great-Aunt Lucinda, who is now staying in a psychiatric hospital and is the only person whom they know to have been in contact with Arthur Spiderwick, who was her father. When they ask her about Arthur, it is revealed that the last she saw him was one day when she was a little girl, on which Arthur had set out from the house on foot and never returned. She is horrified that the Grace family is staying at the Estate, which she says is not safe, and even more worried when she hears that they have the Guide, believing her father to have taken it with him when he disappeared. However, when Jared takes the book from his backpack to show her, it has been replaced with another book, presumably by Thimbletack. They finally reach a river grove inhabited by elves, who threaten to trap one of the children there unless the guide is given to them. The children flee, however, promising to bring the Guide as soon as they can. On passing by the Phooka again, one of his riddles leads them to think that Arthur is still alive, but imprisoned in Faerie with the elves.The family attends Mallory's fencing meet at school.
