"Oh. dear!" said Paddington. "I'm in trouble again." Somehow trouble always comes naturally to Paddington. What other bear could catch a fish in his hat, or cause havoc in the Browns' kitchen just by trying to be helpful?
The Browns are going abroad and a certain bear is planning the trip. But, as Mr Brown worries, with Paddington in charge, "There's no knowing where we might end up!"
"Even Paddington can't come to much harm in half an hour," said Mrs Brown. But who else other than Paddington could hang Mr Curry's lawnmover from a treetop or set Father Christmas' beard on fire?
Paddington's fondness for marmalade earns him an invitation to an "important ceremony". It also leads him into a lot of very sticky trouble, but as always he manages to come out on top.
There hasn't been a single disaster since Paddington came back from Peru. But he soon makes up for lost time. The Stock Exchange, the ballet, the barber's shop, Mr Curry's kitchen... nothing safe when Paddington gets to work.

"I do wish I could see Paddington's mind!" said Mrs Brown. "I know something's going on. I can recognise the signs." And there is plenty of cause for concern when Paddington takes an interest in detective work. Not to mention sewing and ballroom dancing!

Their act is full of magic, mystery, fun, and fear. And it's nice to have another boy around, even if he is a bit... hairy. But then things start to go wrong. The lion loses his dentures. The clowns lose their noses. The Ringmast…
Once, and once only, there was a boy whose name was Fizzlebert. Fizzlebert Stump lives in a travelling circus. He hangs around with acrobats, plays the fool with clowns, and puts his head in a lion's mouth every night. But it can be a bit lonely being the only kid in the circus. So one day, Fizz decides to join a library - and that's when it all goes terribly wrong... A story of a boy, a …
