| Summary: |
|
The fourth episode of Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi's Spiderwick Chronicles is here and more spellbinding than ever! When the Grace children and their mom attend Mallory's fencing competition, Jared spies an odd-looking fellow rooting through Mallory's duffel bag. The problem is, the thief looks just like Jared himself, and when the boy confronts his mysterious double with a knife -- iron is known to repel faeries -- the "Not-Jared" disappears and Jared winds up almost expelled from school. But when Mallory disappears, a trip to the quarry results in a harrowing meeting with dwarves, a run-in with a googly-eyed "knocker," a scheme to rescue their sister from a strange sleep, and finally, a startling fight over the book. All may look hopeless for the Grace kids, but thankfully, help is right at home. A page-turning installment that even includes an image of Jared's expulsion letter, The Ironwood Tree packs the punch that fans have come to love.
