Another volume, this time about Paddington's adventures on a family holiday in France, that made our 7-year-old grandson laugh.

it was fun, but i enjoyed other paddington stories better. my favourite part was the tour de france, the illustrations of paddington on his tricycle were my favourite of the book too

It was a slow start but once we reached France, the shenanigans kicked in. It was absolutely perfect.
