"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.

The last battle is the greatest of all battles. During the last days of Narnia, the land faces its fiercest challenge - not an invader from without but an enemy from within. Lies and treachery have taken root, and only the king and a small band of loyal followers can prevent the destruction of all they hold dear in this, the magnificent ending to the Chronicles of Narnia.
