Synopsis
This exquisite collector’s edition, celebrates the original, 1958, edition of the best-loved story of Paddington, the classic bear from Darkest Peru, now a major movie star.
“A bear? On Paddington station?” Mrs Brown looked at her husband in amazement. “Don’t be silly, Henry. There can’t be!”
