The Field Guide

Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the international bestselling Spiderwick Chronicles with the first instalment in the adventures of the Grace children.  After finding a mysterious handmade field guide in the attic of the ramshackle old mansion they've just moved into, the Grace children – Jared, Simon and Mallory – discover that there's a magical and maybe dangerous world existing parallel to our own – the world of faerie.   The children want to share what they know, but the faeires will do everything possible to stop their secrets being revealed . . .

Holly Black spent her early years in a decaying Victorian mansion where her mother fed her a steady diet of ghost stories and faerie tales. An avid collector of rare folklore volumes, spooky dolls, and crazy hats, she lives in West Long Branch, New Jersey, with her husband, Theo. Together with illustrator Tony DiTerlizzi, she is the creator of the bestselling Spiderwick Chronicles series of children's books.
