The Spiderwick Chronicles

spiderwick.gif 

Now that you have heard the first book in the Spiderwick Chronicles, tell me which of the main characters is the most like you and why you think that character is like you.

I think that I am most like Mallory. I am the older sister of two younger brothers (they are not twins, but they are only a year apart), and I kind of picked on my brothers sometimes, just like Mallory picks on Jared. I was also kind of bossy, just like Mallory.

I hope you are as excited about seeing the Spiderwick movie as I am! Here are a couple of Spiderwick websites that you might enjoy:

International Sprite League

Enjoy!

Mrs. Matzat, your library lady :-)

    I’m on book 3 in the series, but I’d say that so far, I’m most like Simon. He seems to be the calm, peaceful one who tries to avoid trouble if possible. He doesn’t like it when people fight and often tries to break up Mallory and Jared’s fights. He also is sensitive and kind-hearted. He cares about animals and sticks up for his brother Jared. I feel that I’m a lot like that. I, too, am kind-hearted, sensitive, and avoid trouble if I can. I don’t like it when people fight either and would do almost anything to avoid a fight.

Simon because I love animals Especially cats.Mallory beacause I like to boss my brothers around {Their almost twins but their not.}So you don’t like the movie well I’m tuned into scary most of the time.So there was no Ironwood Tree no dwarves no Mallory in a coffin no shiny sword.

  41. 41 rhiannon March 6, 2008 at 1:39 pm

    I thought that the spider wick cronicles movie was pretty awsome! I bet you injoied it to. When I went with my best friend Cheyenne and we got to the end of the movie, we saw her mom crying because it was so sad when her dad came back to life and took his daughter with him. Well not the bad sad, but the happy sad. My favorit part was when Simon, Peter, and Mallory went to find the womenand the flowers turned into somthing like faries. Mallory was my favorit chacter becuse she’s a girl ofcourse. Well I reallly injoied that book. Thanks for inviteing all of us. Later!

  42. 42 Holliday 506 March 24, 2008 at 12:55 pm
