Story: |
When the three Grace children - troubled Jared; his bookish twin, Simon; and their sister,
Mallory, a fencing jock - move to the ancient Spiderwick mansion, they are at first
none-too-enchanted by the rundown Victorian ... until they discover a Brownie, an
enchanted creature, living in the walls. They soon find a book - Arthur Spiderwick's
Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You - that will open their eyes to the
invisible, odd, and sometimes dangerous world of dragons and boggarts, phookas and
fairies, sprites and goblins that is all around them. When they cross paths with
Mulgarath, an ogre, they realize quickly that he will stop at nothing to get his
hands on the Field Guide. Based on the bestselling series of books by Tony DiTerlizzi
and Holly Black.
