1	!! Main Series
2	[[AC: Midnight for Charlie Bone]]
3	* Charlie attempting to help fix things between Paton and Miss Ingledew after Paton tells him about the disastrous date. Though his attempt ends in failure, it's heartwarming to see how much Charlie wants Paton to be happy.
4	* Charlie's love and concern for his mother. At one point he worries that she is too remote and quiet.
5	* The final line of the novel:

7
8	[[AC: Charlie Bone and the Time Twister]]
9	* Mr Pilgrim offering Henry oatcakes and giving him his cloak to wear after seeing that he's cold. He later also shows concern that Henry was left up in the Music Tower at all, as it's freezing at night up there.
10	* Charlie offering to have detention with Olivia after Olivia gets detention because of something Charlie asked her to do, after realising that Olivia would be alone during the weekend. It's really sweet to see that he cares enough about his friends that he'd put his own problems on hold for them like that. Then straight after that there's Olivia insisting that Charlie help Henry and not worry about her.
11	* Henry and James' reunion.

19	* For all its flaws, Charlie's decision to take Billy to the Castle of Mirrors is motivated by Charlie's concern for Billy and his wanting him to be happy and safe.
20	* Though a major tearjerker, Christopher Crowquill's sacrifice also counts as a heartwarming moment, as he was motivated by his love for Billy Raven and his faith that Paton will help Billy.
21	* Alice Angel cared about Christopher Crowquill so much that she couldn't bear to stay in the city where he lived. That says a lot about their friendship.

24
25	[[AC: Charlie Bone and the Hidden King]]
26	* In a round-about way, how [[spoiler: Lyell]] begins to fade when Amy starts forgetting him in ''Charlie Bone and the Hidden King''. It's kind of heartwarming to think that it's largely Amy who was keeping him alive for all those years by just remembering him. It shows how deep their bond is, that his life is tied to her memories of him.
27	* Paton reassuring Charlie that his father won't fade away and isn't forgotten, because Lyell was a good friend to so many people.
28	* Paton's outrage at hearing that Maisie will be transferred, and his making it clear that anyone who touches a hair on Maisie's head will answer to him.

34	* Charlie defending his father when Lucretia insults him near the end of the novel:
35	---> '''Charlie:''' My father's worth a hundred Yewbeams!
36	** It's particularly heartwarming since it's only been a few weeks at most since Lyell's been awakened, and already Charlie shows so much loyalty toward him.
37	* The brief romance between TeamPet Runner Bean and the Shellhorn Family dog Chattypatra.
38
39	[[AC: Charlie Bone and the Shadow of Badlock]]
40	* The friendship between Matilda and Billy TheWoobie is full of sweetness and makes it almost understandable why he is hesitant to actually escape Badlock and leave her behind (and in the next book, she helps him escape her grandfather once he does decide to go home).
41
42	[[AC: Charlie Bone and the Red Knight]]
43	* Charlie telling Cook that he'll never believe that his father didn't care about him or the city, and that he had to have a good reason for going away.
44	* Lyell offering to adopt Billy at the end of the last book.
45	** What makes it even more heartwarming is the knowledge that Billy is his best friend's son.
