About The Book

Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the international bestselling Spiderwick Chronicles and get ready for the series soon to be streaming on Disney+ with the second installment in the adventures of the Grace children.

Thanks to the mysterious field guide left behind by their long-lost great-great-uncle, Arthur Spiderwick, life for the Grace kids – Jared, Simon and Mallory – is beyond weird. When Simon goes missing, Jared is certain creatures from the faerie world have something to do with it. Mallory is not convinced. That is, until she and Jared contend with a band of menacing goblins. Simon is clearly in danger, and it’s up to Mallory and Jared to save him before it’s too late.
