Paddington Bear has charmed readers of all ages for almost 60 years! Now part of the I Can Read line, Michael Bonds classic character will delight beginning readers with his curious nature and nose for adventure.
Paddington is thrilled to go to the beach with the Browns. Hes never splashed in the ocean or built a sand castle. Outfitted with a new set of beach toys, Paddington seems ready for whatever comes his way. But the biggest surprise of all sweeps Paddington off on a new adventure.
Paddington Sets Sail is a Level One I Can Read book, which means its perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences.
