Praise for the Paddington series:
‘I’ve always had great respect for Paddington...He is a British institution.’ Stephen Fry
‘Paddington has joined Pooh as one of the great bears of English children’s literature.’ The Teacher
‘Michael Bond’s accident-prone bear...has become one of the most enduring of children’s characters.’ The Bookseller
‘ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS!’
That’s what Paddington had read on the glossy leaflet showing a large, sleek, silver-grey car. It took him a long time to eat fifteen packets of currants in order to enter the competition. And the Rolls-Royce he’d expected to win turned out to be one of ten thousand consolation prizes – a bookmark!
Then Paddington finds himself taking his driving test and, much to his amazement, is presented with a licence allowing him to drive a rather unusual vehicle.
Paddington turns up in many more hilarious books published by Collins.
