The Spiderwick Chronicles

After moving into a neglected family estate, three siblings discover a hidden book connected to a world of faeries, goblins, and other creatures. As strange events unfold around the house, they must work together to protect the book and face the dangers it has awakened.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this colorful, fast-moving fantasy if you want a darker children’s adventure with family themes; Not for you if you prefer deeper world-building or the wonder of Harry Potter.
