The adventure continues as the Brown family holidays in France. Paddington continues to develop his skills in putting things together.

Much prefer the continuous story with broken into related short stories. Particuarly enjoyed the pardon and dupont. Paddington is much more bearable in this book.

This is one of my favourite Paddington books and I remember it from when I was a child. As a francophile and a lover of this little bear from Peru, it transported me away for an hour, helping me to escape this year.

This is the fourth book in the Paddington series. It didn't disappoint. Paddington was up to his same old adventures. It was just a typical Paddington book except it was set in France.

Paddington Bear stories are just always a pleasure to read. The subtleties in the writing and the sheer Britishness makes them even more enjoyable. In this one, Paddington goes on holiday to France and the national stereotypes are so much fun. Plus, even the Tour de France features!

Paddington goes on holiday to France with the Browns and is adored by the locals as much as he is at home. More enjoyable tales about a lovely bear read aloud to my 10 year old and neither of us are too old to be charmed by these lovely stories.

Not quite as good as the others but still brilliant. It probably only got 4 stars because I missed Mr Gruber
