The Spiderwick Chronicles: The Completely Fantastical Edition by Tony DiTerlizzi
3.0
Actual Rating: 3.5
I absolutely adored the fantastical world described in this book which thrives alongside our own full of the mystical and the terrifying. The Grace children were all very unique and likeable and i thoroughly enjoyed travelling along with their journey.
Tony Diterlizzi's illustrations were absolutely amazing and definitely added perfectly to the story, i particularly loved the drawings of Mallory in the fairytale style dress, even though I'm sure she didnt approve!
The drawings in the back of the book were fascinating to flick through.
I absolutely adore this edition of the book, it's beautiful and if you're thinking of reading the series then definitely get this edition!
Although I throughly enjoyed the book, it didn't quite have the 'wow' factor so I can't justify giving it more than 3.5 stars! I love the world which Holly and Tony so masterfully crafted.
