Sealed with a sticky paw! First-class correspondence from the nation's favourite bear, Paddington - now a major movie star! Dear Aunt Lucy, I expect this will come as a great surprise to you, but not only have I arrived in England, but I have an address! I'm staying at number 32 Windsor Gardens, and it isn't at all like the Home for Retired Bears.

Ever since Paddington arrived in England, he has shared his adventures with his aunt Lucy back in Peru. From meeting the Browns to discovering the sights and sounds of London, his letters tell the story of a kind-hearted bear discovering a whole new life - told with love, from Paddington.

Paddington Bear always manages to find himself in tricky situations, sometimes extraordinary situations. Like the time he had a difficult encounter with a policeman or when he found himself in deep water with a newspaper reporter. But since arriving from his native Peru after an earthquake Paddington has always felt at home with the Brown family who found him on Paddington station.

When Mr. Gruber shows Paddington an outdoor painting exhibition he is inspired to take up a new hobby… After attending an Outside Exhibition, Paddington is inspired to take up painting himself. He gets busy with his own paints and holds his own exhibition, but is discouraged by the problems of self-portraiture – forgetting what he looks like in the mirror! Then a mystery art collector buys up his entire works. This is just the boost he needs, and he’s soon busily trying his first family portrait!

Paddington – the beloved, classic bear from Darkest Peru – is back in this fantastically funny, brand new, illustrated novel from master storyteller Michael Bond! “My legs are a bit short for the pole vault!” repeated Paddington hotly. “But they’ve always been that way.” Somehow Paddington Bear always manages to find himself in unusual situations.

Paddington visits the Spring carnival in Little Venice. Read by actor Jim Broadbent. It’s Springtime again and Mr Gruber is taking Paddington down to the canal to join in the fun at the Spring Carnival. Hoping to win a boat ride for two, the friends enter the Busy Bee Adventure Trail. Paddington soon discovers that he’s very good at spotting things beginning with the letter B, but it seems that he’s not the only one with his eye on the prize…

But at the zoo things don't go to plan. There are some very fierce, not to mention hungry animals there. It is not Paddington they are after though, it is his elevenses!

Paddington is excited to be organising an Easter egg hunt for his neighbours. But, from finding empty supermarket shelves, to buying a box of broken Easter eggs, Paddington wonders if the hunt can ever go ahead. That is, until Mr Gruber’s book on Roman mosaics and some sticky marmalade give him a brilliant idea . . .

When the Browns find Paddington lying on the lawn, unable to remember where he is or even what the word bun means, they immediately realise something is seriously wrong and send for an ambulance. It’s Paddington’s first time in hospital, and the doctors and nurses soon discover that he is rather an unusual patient!

For Paddington, one of the nicest things about being a bear and living with the Brown family is being able to share their lovely garden. And though he may not have “green fingers”, the fact that paws and marmalade are never far apart leads to some unexpectedly colourful results during National Garden Week!

Paddington is very excited. He is going on a day trip around the city with his friend, Mr Gruber. With his suitcase full of marmalade sandwiches and Mrs Bird’s umbrella in case it rains, the bear from darkest Peru is ready for anything. Or almost. How is Paddington to know that the other tourists will think he was their tour guide? And how could he guess that they will follow him everywhere? Chaos and humour are hand-in-hand in this new story about the bear who always gets it right in the end.

Fans takes the listener on a journey through a constellation of fandoms, and along the way demonstrates some fundamental truths about the human condition. Part behavioural study, part entertainment, at its heart the book is a story of collectives, of what happens to us when we interact with people who share our passions. The human brain is wired to reach out, and while our groupish tendencies can bring much strife (religious intolerance, racism, war, etc.), they are also the source of some of our greatest satisfactions.

Paddington egy nap izgalmas hírrel állít be magyar származású barátja, Gruber úr régiségkereskedésébe: a Brown család vakációra megy Franciaországba. Ráadásul a családfő Paddingtont bízza meg az útiterv összeállításával. Persze a tévéből is jól ismert mackó nem is lenne önmaga, ha nem okozna felfordulást, ahová csak lép, legyen az a bank, a repülőtér, vagy egy lakatlan sziget, de a végén valahogy mindig jó sül ki belőle.

Legyen szó vízvezeték-szerelésről, kéményseprésről, a narancslekvárgyár meglátogatásáról vagy az iskolai krikettmeccsről, Paddington mindig kész segíteni, a Brown család őszinte rémületére. Ám ha kedvenc mackónkról van szó, két dolog biztos: a nevetés és a happy end. Hiába a sok balfogás, a végén Paddington megoldja.

A legsötétebb Peruból jött medve újabb kalandjai sem kevésbé izgalmasak, mint az eddigiek. Paddington részt vesz például egy folyóparti pikniken, árverésen költi a pénzt, moziba megy és születésnapot ünnepel egy elegáns étteremben. Ezúttal is a tőle megszokott nagy lelkesedéssel fog bele egyszerűnek tűnő feladatokba, de aztán igyekezete hamar zűrzavarba és mindenféle kalamajkába torkollik.
