A Bear Called Paddington, Michael Bond



5 stars
What a delightful tale - and even more so when read out loud with a British accent. Here's the book that started the tales about the bear from "Darkest Peru" who loves marmalade and to whom unusual things always seem to happen.

Are the boys enjoying it?
I LOVE Paddington! We even have our picture with his statue at Paddington Station. If i can find it i'll send it your way.

That would be great - the boys would love that...the boys have enjoyed the story...so simply and wonderful - I actually never read Paddington as a child so it was nice to read and grow young again.
