What to expect
“Bears like Paddington are very rare,” says Mrs Bird, “and a good thing too, or it would cost us a small fortune in marmalade.”
Stephen Fry returns to tell us the continuing saga of Paddington and the Browns.
READ BY STEPHEN FRY. The Brown Family first met Paddington on a railway station – Paddington station, in fact – and now he is just another member of their family, if a slightly unusual one.
As he says himself, “Things happen to me – I’m that sort of bear.” With his attempts at home decorating, detective work and photography, the Brown family soon find that Paddington causes his own particular brand of chaos.
Critics Review
“Paddington has joined Pooh as one of the great bears of English children’s literature”
The Teacher
“Michael Bond’s accident-prone bear…has become one of the most enduring of children’s characters.”
