A well-meaning Paddington creates havoc in the kitchen and the launderette when he tries to help out. "Paddington comes out trumphant." -- New York Times Book Review
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The stories of Paddington Bear have delighted children all around the world for over 50 years.
"Oh dear," said Paddington, as everyone turned to look at him accusingly. "I'm in trouble again." Somehow trouble came naturally to Paddington.
What other bear could upset a whole movie theater by standing on his seat to boo the bad guy in the film? Or drip ice cream on the people down below? Or flood the Laundromat and saw Mr. Curry's kitchen into little pieces? Only Paddington! But when Paddington's head is so full of ideas, some things are bound to go wrong!
