Editorial Reviews

The Spiderwick Chronicles have flown south, but even the hot Florida sun has dulled the mysterious little creatures that bedevil the unsuspecting. This case involves a beguiling water creature, a pack of fire-breathing giants, and Nicholas Vargas, a preteen boy with problems of his own. A neat mix of the whimsical, the weird, and the exciting.
