This the 2nd book in the Spiderwick series.

The Grace children have another adventure in the secret room of their new house.  They find the Field Guide and meet up with their friend Thimbletack and discover a special seeing stone eye piece.  There is a goblin attack on Simon and he gets rescued by his sister and brother.  They also rescue, Griffin, a bird captured and beaten by the goblins and a troll.  They nurse the giant bird back to health and keep it in their carriage house as a pet.

I don't think this was as good as the first book because it wasn't as exciting as Book 1. I would rate this an eight out of ten.  Boys and girls would like this book.  My favorite part of the book was when they saved Simon from the goblins.
