This was a much quicker Paddington read because of the letter format so I'm doing a shorter review of it. We hear from Aunt Lucy and why she decided to send Paddington off on his adventures, letting him experience more of life than just hanging out with old retired bears at the home. We get Paddington's view of being sent away and the full story of how he got to London by ship and met the Brown family. It was great to see the letters that Paddington sent to Aunt Lucy, telling of all his adventures! It was a fun addition to the series.
