What makes Paddington books so endearing is the fact that Paddington, while always working with the best of intentions, somehow always ends end making a gigantic mess of everything but a mess that ultimately turns out for the best in the end.įor those of you who don’t know Paddington, he’s a bear from deepest, darkest Peru, whose aunt smuggles him to England on an ocean liner (with a jar of marmalade which is, as everyone knows a bear’s favorite food). I can, however, guarantee that once you’ve finished reading all 96 adventures your kids are going to want you to start back at the beginning again. I can’t, however, guarantee that your kids won’t sneak off and read the stories on their own. If you read one story to your kids each night before bed, you’ve got yourself 96 nights of reading. These 14 volumes each contain 7 chapters (each chapter is a different adventures). There are 14 volumes, not counting all the single story books, the Paddington Bear color, shapes, counting books, baby board books and numerous other Paddington Bear spin off books. For those of us who’ve been reading Paddington Bear for as far back as we can remember, it was an “about time” moment. This is another guest post from my brother, Rob Vajko – Thanks, Rob!Īmongst those who love to read children’s books there are only two classes of readers, those who love Paddington Bear and those who haven’t yet read Paddington Bear.īack in 2014, many Americans discovered Paddington Bear for the first time on the big screen with the lavish CG movie.
