The Tuttle Twins Learn About The Law

The Tuttle Twins Learn About The Law

Children are taught that the government protects our life, liberty, and property. But what if some laws actually allow people to hurt us and take our things? Ethan and Emily Tuttle are about to discover a shocking truth — with the help of their neighbor Fred, they’ll learn about property, pirates, and plunder, and figure out what they can do to stop the bad guys in government.

The book that started it all. Inspired by Frédéric Bastiat’s classic The Law, this is Book 1 of the Tuttle Twins series — an engaging, accessible introduction to property rights, the purpose of law, and what happens when laws are used against the very people they’re meant to protect.

Themes & Ideas Explored

• What the law is supposed to do — and what happens when it doesn’t
• Property rights and why they matter for a free society
• How some laws allow plunder — legally taking from some to give to others
• What individuals can do when government oversteps its bounds
