Paddington Bear
Paddington Bear: courageous, proud, forever fond of adventure and always a bear of his word.
Adopted by the wonderful Brown family of 32 Windsor Gardens, the young Paddington was discovered waiting at his namesake railway station in London. Carrying just a suitcase (with a special secret compartment for all his important papers), an old bush hat and a simple instruction from his beloved Aunt Lucy in Peru (‘please look after this bear’), Paddington swiftly became a cherished member of the household, despite his hilarious capacity for catastrophe and his overwhelming interest in particularly delicious marmalade sandwiches.
Take a leaf out of Paddington’s book with this gorgeously presented volume of inspirational quotes from the bear who always responds to difficult circumstances with kindness and warmth.
