The Nixie's Song by Tony DiTerlizzi6/8/2023 ![]() ![]() Once there, they are disappointed when Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black don't believe them, but they then run into Jared and Simon Grace, who offer to help them gather useful information. The children decide to ask the authors of The Spiderwick Chronicles themselves for advice at a book signing, convincing Jules to drive them. ![]() ![]() They flee from the giant, who becomes hypnotized and calm when it hears Talya's singing. They find the pond dried, the surrounding forest burnt and the bodies of three of the nixies, accidentally waking up a giant, which they mistook for a hill. They leave after a faerie named bobby fills Nick's father's car with sand to look for Talya's sisters at her old pond. In the following day, the Nixie, named Talya, gives Nick and Laurie the Sight and sends them to find her six sisters, who were separated when their pond was destroyed. After finding a four-leafed clover (which allows people to see faeries) he sees a nixie unconscious in his yard, which he and Laurie carry into a nearby artificial pond. Nick thinks she is „lame” and wishes she would leave him alone. Laurie has read the Spiderwick Chronicles and believes in faeries. This story takes place in Florida, where 11-year-old Nick Vargas lives with his brother, Jules, his weird stepsister, Laurie, his father, Paul, and his stepmother, Charlene, in his father's housing development. ![]()
