Jamie is baffled. Throughout the town, toys are being broken -teddies eyes are going missing, puppets strings are tangled, and the finger of blame seems to point at Jamie. Then he meets Mr Patchett, the toymender, who tells him the tale of the monstrous Toybreaker -a hideous creature fuelled by jealousy who roamed children's rooms before Christmas in times gone past, breaking anything, and everything which was loved. Could the toybreaker be back? If he is to clear his name, Jame has to find out.
