Publisher's Summary

The classic story of Paddington, the bear from Darkest Peru, who was found lost on Paddington Station.

“A bear on Paddington Station?” said Mrs Brown in amazement. “Don’t be silly – there can’t be.”

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.

would recommend to other parents

Stories are entertaining for both parents & children. Paddington's antics are funny & amusing. Stephen Fry does a great job doing the voices of the various characters the bear encounters. We would be happy to listen to this again.

Loved it! Couldn't stop listening. I love how Stephen Fry Narrated this book because he uses expression and sounds like he really wants to keep reading and reading. I also like how he makes different voices for the different characters. 🐻

Enchanting for all the family to listen to.

Master 8 says 'I loved this. I loved the person telling the story and I loved the story.". My husband and I found ourselves giggling and chuckling along as well. Stephen Fry is the perfect narrator.
