About this listen
When burglars break into the Treeple family’s home, they get far more than they bargained for.
A few weeks before Christmas, two burglars called Peter and Terry break into a big house covered in ivy. The family is out. The Christmas tree in the window is smiling. And the old carved chair in the dining room seems to have a mind of its own.
The burglars take the TV, the jewellery, a gleaming new bike and one very strange antique chair. But Willow and Ashley Treeple come home to a house that no longer feels like theirs. They feel scared, angry and sad. They wonder if it was somehow their fault.
Then the magic begins. A tree that fights back. A chair called Henry who will not stay stolen. A visit from a kind neighbour. And a family who slowly learns that feeling safe again happens bit by bit.
Why you will love this book:
A funny, warm story with magic, mischief and a Christmas Eve ending
Helps children talk about big feelings through the Treeple family, without having to talk about themselves first
“Unpacking the story” questions after every chapter to start gentle conversations
A parent and carer guide with practical tips on talking about burglars, lost belongings, fear of it happening again and getting back to normal
Created with a consultant child psychotherapist and an educational adviser
Perfect for children who have been through a burglary, children who worry about one, and any family who wants to talk about safety, loss and feelings.
Why have we been burgled? is part of the Coping with Growing series, which helps children understand life’s big moments through stories they will want to hear again.
