I read all five books of The Spiderwick Chronicles
in a row. The books are about Jared Grace; his twin brother, Simon; and their older sister Mallory. The siblings move into their great-aunt's old house with their mother. Not long after, strange things begin to happen that can't be explained. Jared finds a book that his great-great-uncle had written that contains information about faeries that we can't see although they live in our world. Jared soon discovers that there are faeries who want the book and they'll do anything to get it.There are five very short books in this series. It could have been written as one larger book, though. They were a very short, easy read. I enjoyed these books even though they are written for a much younger audience. I would say that they are similar in appearance and have the same target audience as the A Series of Unfortunate Events
books. I thought this was a cute series and it's great for younger kids. I'm interested in seeing the movie now to see how it compares to the books.3 out of 5 stars
