Paddington Bear at last joins Winnie the Pooh and Peter Rabbit in having his well known and well loved adventures turned into Latin. Who can resist learning the Latin for 'marmalade sandwiches' and 'Darkest Peru'?

Review:

'Paddington has joined Pooh as one of the great bears of English children's literature.'

From the Back Cover:

The Browns first met Paddington on a railway station – Paddington station, in fact. He had travelled all the way from Darkest Peru with only a jar of marmalade, a suitcase and his hat.

The Browns soon found that Paddington was a very unusual bear. Ordinary things – like having a bath, travelling underground or going to the seaside became quite extraordinary, if a bear called Paddington was involved.
