Paddington has warmed the hearts of generations of readers with his earnest good intentions and humorous misadventures. This new paper-over-board 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.
