The primary cause of trouble and source of plot is the interaction between the minuscule Borrowers and the "human nuts", whether the human motives are kind or selfish. The main character is teenage Piggy, who often begins relationships with Big anf Fat People that have chaotic effects on the lives of herself and her family, causing her parents to react with fear and worry.
The Borrowers are miniature people who live below a clock in a house located in England. Homily, Pod and Arrietty are their names. Pod goes 'Borrowing' for items, Homily does the usual motherhood jobs and Arrietty becomes even more curious about the human being life each and every day.
