內容簡介
內容簡介 Paddington has warmed the hearts of generations of readers with his earnest good intentions and humorous misadventures. This edition of the classic novel contains the original text by Michael Bond and illustrations by R.W. Alley. If Paddington Bear learned anything from his Uncle Pastuzo, it's that home is where you hang your hat. And for Paddington, nothing feels quite like home than being with the Brown family. Whether Paddington is starring in a surprise concert performance while eating a marmalade sandwich or thwarting a burglary attempt from Gentleman Dan, the Drainpipe Man, this one-of-a-kind bear keeps the Brown family home full of adventure and laughter. First published in 2008, Paddington Here and Now is the twelfth classic novel about Michael Bond's beloved classic character, Paddington Bear. What sort of trouble can one small bear from Peru get into? Good Intentions Gone Wrong: Paddington tries to protect the Brown's home by painting the drainpipes with special non-drying anti-burglar paint--with sticky results for the grumpy neighbor, Mr. Curry. Unexpected Adventures: A simple trip to the Portobello Market turns into a mystery when Paddington's beloved shopping basket on wheels suddenly goes missing. A Surprise Performance: Thanks to a magical player piano and a well-timed marmalade sandwich, Paddington becomes the star of a concert he never meant to join. A Family Reunion: A very special visitor all the way from Darkest Peru arrives at Windsor Gardens--Paddington's long-lost Uncle Pastuzo!
