Product Description
It all started with a mysterious letter left at a tiny bookstore for authors Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black. Its closing lines: "We just want people to know about this. The stuff that has happened to us could happen to anyone." Little could they imagine the remarkable adventure that awaited them as they followed Jared, Simon, and Mallory Grace and a strange old book into a world filled with elves, goblins, dwarves, trolls, and a fantastical menagerie of other creatures. The oddest part is in entering that world, they didn't leave this one!Five captivating books! One thrilling adventure! The Spiderwick Chronicles

 Pleased Customer November 20, 2008
The books were in excellent shape and arrived in quick time. I was very pleased with the service.
Good books even for adults! November 15, 2008
Well i'm 38 and I totaly loved the books (5 in total).
My only problem with the series was that I wished it would have been continued, but I guess all good things must come to an end. Don't worry about the intended audience the series aims at, go out and buy it or if you're uncomfortable order online via amazon, like I did!
 disappointing October 21, 2008
I was interested to read these books, based on the reviews I read. I ordered the five volume set of the first five books, thinking I'd be able to settle in and read for a good long time. It was disappointing to receive a set of five tiny books, each containing one scant chapter. At a cost of over $5.00 each, this could be the most expensive children's book ever, once you read all the different volumes. So, not much of a story, and a rip-off if you look at value, which you should certainly look at. One of the many satisfying things about the Harry Potter books is that they are full books, some quite long, and very engrossing, even as a re-read.
Perfect Collection of Fantasy October 15, 2008
My husband and I saw the movie based on these books and became intrigued by the story. I immediately ordered the book collection after the movie ended. These books are very sweet with writing and illustrations that will lead any child into a wonderful world of fantasy. This collection would be a special reading experience for grandparents with their grandchildren but also for all parents who enjoy fantasy and want to introduce their children to the fun world of make believe.
Spiderwick Chronicles - boxed set of 5 books August 10, 2008
After we watched the movie, my daughter wondered why there needed to be a field guide for so few mythological creatures. She was right!!! The movie cut out so many main elements and characters, that the books were a welcome relief to know the story that the authors actually intended to share. The size and storage box make them truly easy to join my other collectables.
