A Bear Called Paddington

by Michael Bond

A bear on Paddington Station? said Mrs. Brown in amazement. "Don't be silly there can't be." The Browns first meet Paddington on a railway station Paddington station, in fact. He has 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.
