Meggie is the first character introduced into Inkheart. She was reading in bed with several candles burning when she notices a strange man outside. She tells her father of the man. At first her father doesn't believe her, but then he goes and greets him.

Instead of going to bed, Meggie eavesdrops on the two men, but doesn't hear much. She then goes back to bed.
In the morning, Mo informs her that they will be staying with her mother's aunt, Elinor, for a while so he can repair some books of hers. Before they go, they are stopped by the same man who appeared the night before. He reveals his name to be Dustfinger.
They travel to Northern Italy where Meggie's aunt Elinor lives. During the stay at Elinor's house, Meggie notices that that Mo wants to give Elinor a book, which Meggie has never seen before.
Meggie persuades her father to let her look at the book, though it is only a quick glance. Then, during the night when Dustfinger is putting on a performance to show Meggie how he handles fire, men come and take Mo. Dustfinger follows the, but eventually stops.
