The Field Guide by Holly Black (2003, Illustrated, Reinforced Hardcover)

I love the representation of the merchandise and the efficient delivery! It is exactly as portrayed and was just what I had been looking for.

I purchased this book for oldest son. He got into this series by reading the first book with his classmates at school. He loved it so much that I had to buy the entire collection for him. It took us a little while to find the first book. He already read the entire collection. He loved them so much, he's reading them all over again!

the book is in great condition. very fast shipping, will keep this seller in mind when I need to bid on other items.

This was a great first book to get you hooked into the series. Explains how they found the book and things get started.

my daughter loved this book that she did not want to put it down easy to read and understand. great summer readers for children.we have already ordered the other 4 books for her to read.

Bought this to read with my son. Great story and I'd recommend to anyone who wants an incredible experience with their kids. The only problem we had wasthat we bought it second hand and some of the pages came loose from the binding.

I purchased this item for my 10 year old daughter and she hasn't read any of it yet because she is currently reading another chapter book .

The reason why I purchased this book is because a teacher said that it would be really good for her to read a book like that .

The book was in excellent condition! This book was very easy to read and I enjoyed it very much. I had to read this book along with book 2 and book 3 for a class. I am now searching for book 4 and book 5. These books were very inexpensive and were in great condition upon arrival.

My son loved this book, he moved on to the next in the series right away because of how interesting this one was.

My first purchase and adventure into the Spiderwick Chronicles. The Field Guide sets the premise for the story and provides wonderful illustrations to go with the charming story. In the first few pages I felt like the book might scare young children, however, as I continued reading I knew that every child would fall in love with the characters and the adventure. After completing the first book you cannot avoid purchasing the next four books to complete the Spiderwick adventure. A perfectly enchanting story for children and adults. You cannot help but look for fairies under every rock.

I have always wanted to check out these interesting Spiderwick books for kids. The graphics on the front covers are very alluring and beckons the reader to "come inside". The Field Guide is the 1st book of the series and starts with the Grace children moving into a dilapitated old Victorian home after their parents get a divorce. After moving in and hearing odd noises inside the walls is when things get weird...Both authors do a grand job of mixing reality with fantasy. Warning: you will get SO engrossed that all too soon the book ends...ahhhhh! A little frustrating. Great for kids though, because the books are at a fast pace and are "not too thick" to get through. ****4 stars
