Nothing goes quite according to plan when Paddington Bear goes to the beach. Especially when, one by one, he is joined by hungry (and sneaky!) seagulls. Will Paddington’s lunchtime snack be safe
I absolutely love Paddington Bear and the silly antics he gets in. This bear from Peru lives a life before the technology of today and there is something comforting when reading books about him. Almost like reading about an old friend. I have reviewed a few of Paddington books before and like those Paddington at the Beach is a true delight. This is a large repackaged picture book edition which is perfect for younger readers. The original book series is now over 50 years old and it definitely ages well. Ten seagulls see Paddington at the beach and they are eying the bun in his pocket! Paddington does not seem to see what is coming.
