This incident in the book is the whole meaning of  "The Treasure House", it also leads to many mysteries and discoveries throughout the book. This incident effects all the characters throughout the book and is resolved in the end. The incident caused is connected by the protagonist's aunties' second - hand shop to her mother's given away belongings. The protagonist's mother's disappearance is described in a very descriptive way, for example halfway throughout the book her mother sends her a text saying, "I'm OK. Hope you are too. Don't worry. Love you lots. Mum xxx" (p.38) This makes the reader think more about her mother's case then the protagonist's. This book tells a very important moral and is the whole purpose of the book.
