The irresistible Paddington Bear, who was found on Paddington station, returns in this reissued novel, with an updated cover design. 'I do wish I could see into Paddington's mind,' said Mrs Brown, 'I know something's going on.

I can recognise the signs.' And there is plenty of cuase for concern when Paddington takes an interest in detective work.

Not to mention sewing and ballroom dancing! Stories of Paddington Bear have delighted children all over the world for fifty years.
