Description

Paddington – the beloved classic bear from Darkest Peru, now a major movie star – is back in this fantastically funny, brand new illustrated novel from master storyteller Michael Bond!

Hurrying forward, he held out a welcoming hand. “Sir Percival Rushmoor,” he said. “I’m invigilating.”
“I’m sorry to hear that, Sir Percival,” said Paddington. “I hope you feel better very soon.”

Paddington always finds himself in unusual situations so it is no surprise when he has a run-in with the police, appears in a TV cookery show, and gives one of his hard stares to a hypnotist!

Well it's official, history truly does repeat itself. I started my reading journey as a child with Paddington books (I still have all the paperbacks to prove it) and I've come full circle, through every genre you can think of, back to Paddington. I enjoyed my Paddington experience as much as ever, it would appear my love of this bear and all his misadventures has never died, he is still as affable, naive and lovable as ever, a truly classic experience. A great read with all the usual suspects (I'd forgotten how mean Mr Curry was). A lovely classic to read to your children and grandchildren, or great for the kids to read on their own when they're at that stage. I received a copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review (I saw it and could not resist, not once did I regret my decision).

Found this thoroughly enjoyable, (even as an adult) Subjects and themes very relevant to today's society. Would recommend this as a good read for both children and adults (who loved Paddington as a child themselves)
