Lucinda's Secret (ISBN 0689859384) is the third book of The Spiderwick Chronicles by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black, published in 2003.
The Grace children (Simon, Jared and Mallory) visit their Great-Aunt Lucinda who is in a mental asylum. When they speak to her, they learn more about the world of faerie creatures, Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You and its author, Arthur Spiderwick, Aunt Lucinda's father. Arthur had disappeared when Lucinda was still a little girl and the Grace children later find out where he disappeared to when they stumble upon a forest of elves. On their journey they meet Stray-Sods, grass that can move, and a Phooka: a strange creature that talks only in riddles. Jared Grace is captured by the elves, but Jared tricks them into making a pact so that Simon will be trapped instead of him. They all manage to escape the elves, but only by promising them that they will bring the field guide to them when it is found.
