Horn Book

As he ventures into the world of work, Paddington, the famous British bear, gets into some funny scrapes. This edition is bigger, with American spellings, larger print, and a new full-color jacket. Darker reproductions occasionally obscure the illustrations' subtleties, but the essential Paddington is still there.
