Notebook for Fantastical Observations (The Spiderwick Chronicles)

It's a birthday gift for my son. He'll love it. Thank you so much.

The book description was as written. My grandson got the book. He really like the book. I had order the Spiderwick Book the transaction on it was excellent. However my dislikes the observation notebook pages could have been more like the book. I know that the notebook was your observation but it could have been more magical and had some of the description drawing then the child observation of the drawing. The drawing and pictures in the Spiderwick Book I thought was really good. It was so magical with the drawing and the way the book was set up and illustrated. I expected the notebook to be more like the Spiderwick Book and your observation from the drawing and different things that took place in the book. My grandson still like the notebook. I don't know if I would still buy the book if I hadseen it probably not. The shipping of the transaction was excellent the sellers are great on Amazon. The greatest place to shop in my perspective. I hope this help you.

The book is great for people who loved the books and is an artist or writer! It is better for young children(ex: draw the outline of your right hand) but it is also a little mature(just like the books). I would say it's a fun activity for parents and their kids or older siblings and their younger ones. It could just be a bonding experiance! To help with the book I recommend getting Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You.

My 8 yr old is reading the Spiderwick Chronicles box set I purchased from Amazon and I knew the Notebook would be something she'd like. In the Notebook she's able to write stories and there is room to add to stories already being told - sketching Dragons - fairies.. She tells me she wants to complete the series before getting into the Notebook but I don't think it's a must. Anyone who enjoys reading the Spiderwick Chronicles will enjoy it. It's not essential but it's a nice addition.

Beautiful quality and artwork, my little brother is in love with it.

The book was a gift for my son and he was so excited to get it he didn't even mind the countless markings the book had. He simply said I can tell it's a good book by the way it was used.

This was the first book in the Spiderwick world I was disappointed with. I bought the eBook and cannot figure out why the publisher released an e-version of this book. It is intended to be a workbook. There are 14 chapters in this book, alphabetically named after the creatures encountered.The sections are:BrowniesDragonsDwarvesElvesGoblinsGriffinsHobgoblinsKnockersOgresPhookasSpritesStray SodTrollsUnicornsEach section has a story written by someone who has had an encounter with the Fantastical, followed by a short commentary by Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi. Then there are numerous activities to be completed. These includes writing your own encounters, making lists, drawing pictures and much much more. This workbook will be great fun for a child and provide entertainment again and again as they go back and add more notes to each section. But the eBook cannot even be printed out to allow these activities to be completed. If you're going to buy this book make sure you get the physical book. It will be entertaining and fun for children of all ages.

I bought these as a birthday gift for a 10 year old girl. I had them shipped to her in California, she has not gotten to see them yet. Her grandmother received them and said they are a nice quality material, good looking books:)
