Win 'The Spiderwick Chronicles' Book Set

Film Debuts In Theaters Feb. 15

Enter now for your chance to win Entertainment section's contest in conjunction with Paramount Pictures release of "The Spiderwick Chronicles."

The Movie
From the beloved best-selling series of books comes “The Spiderwick Chronicles,” a fantasy adventure for the child in all of us. Peculiar things start to happen the moment the Grace family -- Jared and his twin brother Simon (both played by Freddie Highmore), sister Mallory (Sara Bolger) and their mom (Mary-Louise Parker) -- leave New York and move into the secluded old house owned by their great-great-uncle Arthur Spiderwick (David Strathairn).

Unable to explain the strange disappearances and accidents that seem to be happening on a daily basis, the family blames Jared. When he, Simon and Mallory investigate what’s really going on, they uncover the fantastic truth of the Spiderwick estate and of the creatures that inhabit it.

"The Spiderwick Chronicles" opens in theaters Feb. 15.

The Experience
In anticipation of the release of the film, “The Spiderwick Chronicles Experience” is rolling out across the U.S. The "Experience" is a touring mobile exhibit that is designed to bring “The Spiderwick Chronicles” to life though an education inspired series of interactive displays.
