"Don't be silly Henry. There can't be!" Paddington Bear had travelled all the way from Darkest Peru when the Brown family first met him on Paddington station. Since then their lives have never been quite the same. . . for ordinary things become quite extraordinary when a bear called Paddington is involved. Unabridged and illustrated in glorious full-colour throughout this exquisite gift edition of the original story is truly to be treasured! It was Christmas Eve 1956 when BBC Television cameraman and freelance writer Michael Bond came across a toy bear sitting all by itself on a shelf in a London department store. He couldn't resist buying it for a stocking filler for his wife and they named it 'Paddington' after the railway station near their flat. Had it been any other kind of toy the story might have ended there. But with bears one thing often leads to another so when Michael wondered what might have happened had a real bear found itself alone on a big train terminus the muse struck and 'A Bear Called Paddington' was born. Fifty years and many millions of books later Paddington continues to touch the hearts of adults and children worldwide with his earnest good intentions and humorous misadventures. Michael Bond was awarded the OBE for services to children's literature in 1997 and in 2007 he received the honorary degree of Doctor of Letters from Reading University. Born in Newbury and raised in Reading he lived in London with his wife Sue and two guinea pigs named Olga da Polga and Vladimir.
