PADDINGTON

With his good intentions and humorous adventures, Paddington Bear has charmed readers for over 50 years. The small bear with the bright red hat and blue duffle coat set out on the adventure of a lifetime with nothing but a suitcase, several jars of marmalade, and a label around his neck that read 'Please look after this bear. Thank you.' He crossed the ocean heading for England and arrived in London's busy Paddington Station where he was discovered by Mr. and Mrs. Brown. As luck would have it, the Browns were just the sort of people to welcome a lost bear into their family, and their lives would never be the same. 'I was brought up by my aunt Lucy in Darkest Peru' he began. 'But she had to go into a Home for Retired Bears in Lima.' He closed his eyes thoughtfully and a hush fell over the room as everyone waited expectantly. The classic tale, beautifully illustrated in full page colour illustrations by R. W. Alley. Ages 4-8 years, 32 large pages 28cm squared approx.
