Paddington Races Ahead
Illustrator: Peggy FortnumA new Paddington book is a rare pleasure! On this occasion, Paddington’s ability to cause chaos with the best intentions in the world has not been diminished by the passing of time. Young readers will thrill to how a birthday cake has icing made of shaving foam, a real oyster is used on a bus, a personal trainer meets her match – not to mention plenty of other escapades. Michael Bond still has the ability to keep readers of all ages amused. A real pleasure to read or be read to! (Yes, I did love Paddington when I was a child… still do, as it happens!)
