Beyond The Spiderwick Chronicles The Nixie's Song

I'm sorry you might have thought that I were going to review books that I really liked unfortunately I wil be seperated from my books for quite a while so I decided to make this month dedicated for a book aimed for younger reader since last week I did Charmed Life.I read Beyond The Spiderwick Chronicles Book 1 last week it is written by Tony Diterlizzi and Holly Black(yes the author of White Cat).Counting for the whole series it sold more than 6 million copies and it was published in 2007.

The good
.The illustrations are wonderful
.the story is fun and easy to understand you don't have to actually read the first series(I didn't) to enjoy it

The bad
.The characters feels a little one sided(but then again this is only the first book)
.Way to short

Quick summary
Nicholas Vargas's mom died when he was young,when she died evryone in the family stopped bothering each other.Until one day when his father marries a woman called Charlene who has a daughter named Laurie.She was about Nicholas' age and she had this obsession with faeries which of course made Nick to think that Laurie was a nerd who didn't have any friends.When she forced Nick to to go fairy hunting with her he found a four leaf clover.That night when he was looking outside the window he saw a body laying on the lawn.he called laurie to come with him to check it out but when they went out together Laurie couldn't see it.................................that's it I guess

The conclusion
Spiderwick is definitely written for kids but enen older readers can enjoy the wonderful illustartion and the simple storyline.While some characters does feel a little bit one sided(Jules,Laurie,Etc)the characters does have their own charm but the book is really short probably for more money.Anyway there's not much I can actually say about this a book except for i'f you want something a fantasy and an easy read or if you want to read a book to someone Spiderwick is definitely a good choice.
