Customer Reviews

Paddington Bear Adventures

The story is 50 years old but still catches the rapt attention of the first grade class that I read to every week. The book has the classic illustrations which are colorful and descriptive. An excellent choice for young children with enough mischief yet a clear message of good intentions.
