When Mr Gruber shows Paddington an outdoor painting exhibition he is inspired to take up a new hobby…
He collects all his paints and brushes from his room and goes out into the garden to work on his masterpieces. Soon Paddington has enough pictures to open his own exhibition outside No. 32 Windsor Gardens. Paddington becomes rather discouraged when no one stops to buy one. But there is one mysterious person who appreciates Paddington’s art…
AGE 4-7
Michael Bond
Michael Bond began chronicling Paddington’s adventures in his first book, A Bear Called Paddington, published in 1958. Fortunately, bears don’t need much encouragement, and Paddington has since filled the pages of twelve further novels, a variety of picture books, and many other projects written for the young at heart.
