  • Author Michael Bond
  • Year 1970
  • Genre Childrens

‘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 cause for concern when Paddington takes an interest in detective work. Not to mention sewing and ballroom dancing!

Thoughts

Another easy read, lovely Paddington. What I’m enjoying at this point in the series is how Michael Bond must have been scratching around for activities for this bear to get involved in. Some of them are totally mundane, the dentist, or going to a restaurant (and getting mistaken for a critic), but others are quite out there, the gymkhana garlic situation, and Paddington actually tossing a caber!

Rating: 3 / 5
