genevieve5 's review for:
A Bear Called Paddington
by Michael Bond
A sweet and very cute read! The chapters read more like a continuous stream of little short stories chronicling Paddington's zany adventures, which is delightful. A very appropriate, fun, and gentle book for young children just beginning chapter books, and also a wonderful read-aloud book for families.
Fair warning though: do NOT expect it to be like the movie. There are several of the same characters, a few with personalities very similar to the personalities they have in the movie, but the plot and scenarios Paddington finds himself in are almost entirely different.
Overall, a sweet, quick little read with stories that will make you smile. Thank you, Michael Bond, for pioneering such a classic.
