4.18 AVERAGE


Didn't like this nearly as much as I remembered. The references to "Darkest Peru" seem especially annoying, considering I went to Peru last summer. I guess not everything holds up.

A couple of these stories were particularly cute, though a couple also required me to google some things to determine what the British English meant!

This one felt even shorter than the last one. Perhaps Paddington is so pleasurable it seems to be fleeting. Atticus was particularly curious this time about why Judy and Jonathan sleep away at school, and in the way old time cameras worked. Charming in an affected way by all its British nostalgia, but delicious all the same. And the Christmas chapter is enough to warm anyone's heart.
