Paddington Marches On audiobook

The Paddington books are great fun for all ages. In this one, the bear from Darkest Peru is invited to a marmalade factory, mistakes a policeman for a waxwork at Madame Tussaud's, and saves the day in a cricket match.

Paddington is definitely not just for kids. I read these as a child and loved them and they are just as wonderful now. I enjoyed the nostalgic element of remembering winters where pipes could freeze ( whilst feeling cozy in my centrally heated house!) and Paddington does remind us of a simpler time. It’s also very funny! Expertly read by ‘Mr Brown’ Hugh Bonniville this was a pleasure to listen too. My children enjoyed it too with my 8 year old saying ‘Michael Bond is very funny. He writes very good sentences!”

Paddington is so much fun. None of these stories were to cringy, except for, for poor My Curry.

Also a charming tale of Paddington, though I enjoyed it less than the first book. I think that was simply because the novelty had worn off.

I didn't love this one quite as much as the others, but my god the cold snap story had me literally out of my chair with laughter, it was hilarious!!! The stories with Paddington attempting to help and immediately making the problem worse are probably my favourite tbh

Whenever you need cheering up, always read a Paddington book. He’s so innocent, gets himself into all sorts of trouble but always comes through at the end of the day. Great fun!

Another wonderful addition to the Paddington series. Although I'm pretty sure I will be able to say that of all of them once we finish them (I've been reading them with my 6 year old daughter).This book begins with Paddington helping Mr. Curry out with a plumbing problem. As you can imagine, it doesn't go well. Next, he heads to a Marmalade factory as the guest of honor, but mistakenly gets put to work instead. Don't worry, he eventually makes it to the ceremony via an orange marmalade barrel. He also attempts to clean the chimney, goes to the wax museum with Mr. Gruber, plays cricket, and while at a party thrown in his honor, he learns that he will be returning to Peru to visit his Aunt Lucy.

I'm really enjoying listening and reading this series (read by Hugh Bonneville) and the escapade's Paddington always gets into. Definitely recommend this series to younger audiences who want to follow the adventures of a bear who comes from Peru and now lives with the Brown Family in Winter Gardens in London.2nd time reading: this is just much of a joy the second round! Listening to Paddington has become a comfort read for me. It's a lot of fun, funny and atmospheric. Love Paddington!

With "Paddington Marches On", I am now halfway through the twelve collections of short stories that Michael Bond published about the talking bear Paddington Brown.Paddington continues to get in trouble, despite his best intentions. And, in each case, things work themselves out for the best. Mr. Bond has found a formula and it works. We keep reading because we like Paddington and we care about him and we want him to succeed, even though we know he always will.As a bonus, I learned a bit about the sport of cricket!And there is a nice surprise for Paddington and for the reader at the end of the last story!
