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 and Mr. Gruber enjoy a day off from their duties as they set out to explore London with Jonathan and Judy. Each turn brings a new discovery, and Paddingtons nose for adventure leads to the greatest surprise of all.
Paddingtons Day Off is a Level One I Can Read book, which means its perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences.
