A Bear Called Paddington Kindle Edition

Happy

I bought for a trip to London to get picture by statue of Paddington setting on a bench eating a sandwich in the park while I pretended to read to him

This is my first reading of Paddington .I am an adult. I was inspired to read this book because clearly the late Queen Elizabeth II liked him. After all, she had tea with him.And I have great admiration and respect for her.

So I have just finished reading about the adventures of an adorable young bear from Darkest Peru, who fortunately for both the Brown family and the young bear in question was led by the mysterious hands of Providence, or Serendipity if you will, to be at Paddington Train Station at just the right time on just the right day in order to meet and be taken in by the luckiest family in England.Anyway through a series of (mis) advetures we get to know this adorable young fellow and of course we can't avoid falling in love with him. He makes us laugh, he makes us cry. At times we worry ourselves sick over the poor little thing but we know by book's end that this bear came to London for a reason so therefore nothing bad will ever befall the fuzzball.And so I hereby award this book four stars out of five. Since the other books in the series are sure to be better I have to leave myself some room for higher grade points.BFN Greggorio!

Great book. Decided to get the hardcover and it’s perfect! Couldn’t ask for anything better!

When Mr and Ms Brown invited into their home a stowaway bear called Paddington, I don't think they, along with anybody, would have expected this marmalade-lover's adventures to have a great impact into their lives, and ours, nor that he would become, in our world that is, a popular character in children literature and British culture. Now I heard some cynical people around me (Mister and Miss Curry) calling Paddington Bear clumsy, dim-witted and the most stupid creature that the world has ever seen. However I think those cynical people are wrong and should take a note from this young bear's golden heart, decency and good manners.It is in this book that we get to find Paddington's first adventures around London as he experiences adventures at the theater, in the Underground (or Subway),in a large shop, at the beach and at his new home. It is in this book that we get to see the most recurring characters and locations that occur in the Paddington Bear series like Portobello Market, Mr Gruber and I am very pleased that the Kindle edition hs kept Peggy Fortnum's original ink illustrations, which I am very fond of for their energy and the clear expressions of the characters.In the end, this book is the first in the long classical series of Paddington Bear, who comes from Darkest Peru and who loves marmalade sandwiches.

I 1st met Paddington in the early 70s while I was in college. From the moment I began reading this book I was enamored with Paddington, the Brown family, Mr Curry, Mr Gruber & the rest of the characters in the series of these books. I eventually bought every book published including "Love from Paddington." I am in the process of col!eating them again as I lost the whole collection, a small Paddington bear & 5' tall bear that my husband bought for me knowing I was such a fan. I loved the illustrations then & still love them now. I have watched every episode of the the TV series & was very happy to see that a new movie about Paddington that came out a few years ago & am looking forward to seeing the 2nd movie when it come on the TV. To say the least that I loved them is an understatement.

Bought a Paddington Bear for granddaughter & the book!! She loves this!!!

Peculiarly English and adorable.

Paddington es el osito más adorable de la ficción. Pñun regalo ideal para l@s fans de las pelis basadas en el relato.

Un bel libro in lingua originale . Abbastanza semplice per rispolverare l’inglese

The book arrived as described on the site - and in perfect condition. Quality of paper is excellent. The book itself is already well-loved the world over, so yee, it is a wonderful story that is an ideal gift for kids (or kid-lit fans or people who want a feel-good gift to give to their loved ones).

O livro é uma graça, ótimo para crianças que estejam aprendendo o inglês (ou adultos que sejam fãs do Paddington também). Não tem muitas ilustrações, mas a história é cativante. Minha única decepção é com a qualidade do papel. Decidi comprar o livro no original em inglês porque achei que faria sentido — afinal, é uma história tradicionalmente britânica —, mas essa edição é americana, e sempre naquele papel meio jornalesco usado frequentemente nos paperbacks. Nada que atrapalhe a leitura, mas sempre me esqueço que o bom papel que usamos nos livros brasileiros não é padrão no exterior.
