Watch your cat.

The author knows how to write creepy stories. It makes you want to sleep with one eye open. There is nothing cutesy like Harry Potter and/or as ridiculously dumb as the “So You Want to Be a Wizard” series. This is more in the vein of Lemony Snicket. It just squeezes into the realm of possibilities. However, it takes an evil mind to write these chronicles. One good advantage is that they are short and to the point, enough to hold your attention and then be over before you realize what happened. By now you are familiar with Mallory, Jared, and his young twin brother, Simon. We also know about the discovery of The Field Guide. After the introduction of Brownie named Thimbletack, we also need to reevaluate the statements of Aunt Lucinda. The cat is missing. Naturally, the siblings ignore Thimbletack’s warning about The Field Guide. Yep, tasty Simon has been kidnapped by unseen goblins. Now his brother and sister must save him before he becomes Goblin Chow. To do this, they must first obtain “The Seeing Stone.” Will they save Simon? What creatures will they encounter? Why is Mallory all wet? What is that aroma of roasting …? Next up: “The Spiderwick Chronicles” (Boxed Set): The Field Guide; The Seeing Stone; Lucinda's Secret; The Ironwood Tree; The Wrath of Mulgrath. “Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You” (Spiderwick Chronicles)
