Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You

It all began with a mysterious letter left for authors Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black at a small New England bookstore. Written by three siblings, the letter spoke of their great-great-uncle Arthur Spiderwick and an unfinished tome filled with accounts of creatures once thought to be mere legend. In the bestselling Spiderwick Chronicles, readers followed siblings Jared, Simon, and Mallory Grace as they faced dwarves, goblins, elves, and a diabolical ogre to protect their uncle's life work. Now, through the efforts of the Grace children and the authors, this long-awaited compendium is presented. It features a thoughtful introduction, six sections detailing thirty-one faerie species, and an addendum with observations from Jared Grace. This comprehensive guide satisfies even the most dedicated faerie enthusiasts, revealing the habits and habitats of fourteen fantastical creatures from the bestselling chapter books, along with an additional seventeen. Readers will also find snippets from Arthur Spiderwick’s personal journal and appearances from beloved series characters. With so much to explore, this book promises to be treasured for generations!
