A bear on Paddington Station said Mrs Brown in amazement. Dont be silly there cant be.

The original story of Paddington, the classic bear from Darkest Peru, read by Stephen Fry.
The Browns first meet Paddington on a railway station Paddington station, in fact. He has travelled all the way from Darkest Peru with only a jar of marmalade, a suitcase and his hat.

The Browns soon find that Paddington is a very unusual bear. Ordinary things like having a bath, travelling underground or going to the seaside become quite extraordinary, if a bear called Paddington is involved.
