A classic which suffers little from its age. Paddington is an immigrant bear from "Darkest Peru." He talks, carries a suitcase and is extremely well mannered. He is taken in by a well-to-do British family and enjoys many adventures. His messiness and ability to always come out okay from his mishaps has been enjoyed by youths for over forty years.
Merit: Simple language & enjoyable domestic adventures are easy to identify with.
Share: Read-along and/or book club.
Appeal: Beginning readers to intermediate.
