‘ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS!’
Paddington 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 a driving test and, much to his amazement, is presented with a license allowing him to drive a rather unusual vehicle.

‘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.

Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's beige cloth with blue lettering to spine and pictorial to cover in original pictorial jacket. First American edition. Again we find Paddington in excellent form?and, as usual, up to his ears in trouble. By accident he takes a driving test and is later presented with a certificate to drive something very special. Somehow his neighbor, Mr. Curry, is padlocked into Mr. Brown's new steaming-hot sauna bath, while Paddington has difficulty remembering his combinations. Paddington Takes the Test is packed full of the bear's well-meaning intentions, which go hilariously wrong. Condition: Previous owner's gift inscription to front end paper, slight stain to back end paper. Jacket heavily chipped wit loss, with insect damage, stained else very good in a poor jacket.
