Love from Paddington
Publisher: HarperCollins
When Aunt Lucy puts her nephew on a boat bound for London, she makes him promise to write to her. Here are fifteen letters from Paddington Bear to his Aunt Lucy in the Home for Retired Bears in Lima, Peru.
He tells her about being found and adopted by the Brown family and his many adventures with them. He writes about his difficulties with their neighbour Mr Curry and his great friendship with Mr Gruber the antiques dealer. He recounts his failed attempts at do-it-yourself, cutting hair and horse riding.
Young Paddington Bear seems to make things happen and these letters reveal his unique and innocent view of his adventures.
A delightful accompaniment to the release of the Paddington film.
