Paddington and the Christmas Surprise: A Christmas Holiday Book for Kids - Paddington

Jacket Description/Back: The stories of Paddington Bear have delighted children all around the world for over 50 years."Oh dear," said Paddington, as everyone turned to look at him accusingly. "I'm in trouble again." Somehow trouble came naturally to Paddington. What other bear could upset a whole movie theater by standing on his seat to boo the bad guy in the film? Or drip ice cream on the people down below? Or flood the Laundromat and saw Mr. Curry's kitchen into little pieces? Only Paddington! But when Paddington's head is so full of ideas, some things are bound to go wrong!

Paddington's mentor lives in London, England, with his wife, Sue, and a guinea pig named Olga da Polga. Contributor Bio:  Alley, R W R. W.
