What is The Adventures of Paddington about?

Paddington Bear arrives in London from Peru with a battered suitcase, a marmalade sandwich and a talent for finding trouble. Taken in by the Brown family, he soon turns everyday activities into unforgettable adventures. Whether he is exploring the Browns’ home, visiting the seaside, trying new sports or getting involved in a special celebration, Paddington’s good intentions often lead to hilarious mishaps. This collection brings together two classic books filled with warmth, friendship and the cheerful chaos caused by one very curious bear.
