The narrative is divided into chapters that the author calls chirps and follows the story of John Peerybingles rather ideal family who live in love and harmony. As they gather daily in front of the houses hearth, a cricket keeps on visiting them as if to share with them the cozy and romantic atmosphere. On the other hand, a subplot centers around a poor father, Caleb Plummer, who had lost his only son and who lives with his blind daughter. They both work for one Mr. Tackleton as toymakers. Mr. Tackleton causes a lot of troubles to the two families of the book. Not only does he treat Bertha and her father in a mean way, but he also tries to ruin Mr. Peerybingles marriage by telling him that his wife has cheated on him. The story ends happily when Mr. Peerybingles wife proves her innocence while Mr. Plummers lost son reappears and decides to marry.
