Paddington Bear had travelled all the way from Darkest Peru when the Brown family first met him on Paddington station. Since then their lives have never been quite the same... for ordinary things become quite extraordinary when a bear called Paddington is involved.
As Paddington says himself, "Things happen to me - I'm that sort of bear." And, with his attempts at home decorating, detective work and photography, the Brown family soon find that Paddington causes him own particular brand of chaos.
"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!"
