Magical
These are the kind of books that make themselves absolutley enchanting despite simplicity. Or perhaps that is why I liked them so much. Either way, in the present fantasy days of 400+ page books, it's nice to have something struggling readers or anyone can read in a matter of a few hours--the entire series.
Also, like all the truly good children's fantasies, there is a more real emotional undertone that makes you care deeply for all of these characters. A family post-divorce struggling to connect. Can we say "awww"? In fact,this problem leads to one of the most powerful scenes in the series.
Other than that, it's just good fantasy. Rather than chasing the very boundaries of imagination, it takes a simple and traditional idea that people happen to like. Hey, who does not like to read a book about cute fairy critters?
The books are fast-paced with never a dull moment, but it still clear that thought was put into the storyline.
Hopefully the movie will inspire reading.

Great, great series!
These books are written for kids, true, but being an adult didn't stop me. I read them all and thought the stories were great.
The characters are what keep you reading, I highly recommend these books to parents for their kids.
I can't wait to see the movie!
The next series, "Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles" is just as good. So far only one book as been written (The Nixie's Song) and its great.
Enjoy!

Best book ever
I'm a 9yr old girl that read all the spider wick books. I love books like these. Their full of magical creatures and lands I'm sure that kids like me will like them too.The best part of book 1 was when Mallory got her hair stuck to the headboard .The best part in book 2 was when they saved that poor Griffin I was so happy about that part because I'm a animal lover.In book 3 it was cool when the unicorn put a little spell on Mallory.In book 4 I liked when Jared and Simon tricked the dwarves into getting their sister back.Book 5 was the best book of all Mulgarath shapeshifted in to the kid's dad then he tricked them and almost killed Simon and Mallory Jared wasn't traped. But good thing Thimbletack(the house brownie) was there and he saved them.Jared took Mallory's sword and defeated Mulgarath! The book was awsome and I didn't have nightmares.This was the best book ever!

fast service
Received the books fast. Bought as a gift and my son enjoy's them very much. I will order again
The Great Chronicles of Spiderwick
Did you like Lord of the Rings? Did you like the Chronicles of Narnia? Then you WILL like the Spiderwick Chronicles as well. This
set takes
you into another world, where you get lost in your imagination. Not only are these books good for children, but for people of all ages, especially the adults out there who still have some child in them. These are quick reads and the types of books that you look down into and look up 2 hours later, not realizing where the time has gone.
Definitely a great set to own and a must read even if you just borrow them from your local library.
Two thumbs up!
