Book description
Paddington, the bear from darkest Peru, was found by the Brown family on Paddington station. In this adventure Paddington has a sticky time of it making toffee in Mrs Bird’s kitchen, and an even stickier time trying to explain the mess.
"Even Paddington can’t come to much harm in half an hour," said Mrs Brown optimistically. But he can manage a lot of other things in even less time – like hanging Mr Curry’s lawnmower from a tree-top, or coming up through the bandstand floor during the 'Surprise Symphony’. Then Paddington has a sticky time of it making toffee in Mrs Bird’s kitchen, and an even stickier time explaining what went wrong. And who else but Paddington could set Father Christmas’s beard on fire?
