A Bear Called Paddington [electronic resource]
Bond, Michael2012
eBook
"A bear on Paddington Station?" said Mrs Brown in amazement. "Don’t be silly – there can’t be." The Browns first met Paddington on a railway station – Paddington station, in fact. He had travelled all the way from Darkest Peru with only a jar of marmalade, a suitcase and his hat. The Browns soon find that Paddington is a very unusual bear. Ordinary things – like having a bath, travelling underground or going to the seaside become quite extraordinary, if a bear called Paddington is involved.
