Ever up for a new challenge, Paddington sallies forth on a sewing machine when Mr. Curry requests a bit of tailoring, in this 1970 book—his ninth collection of hilarious tales. Here we also find Paddington high atop a horse, down in the dentist's chair, and alongside Mr. Gruber in a classic car. But the highlight of the feast may be Paddington's turn as a master detective—if not his turn on the ballroom floor. Since he first appeared in 1958, Michael Bond's furry refugee in duffle coat and battered hat has charmed his way into the hearts of children in Britain and around the world, best known from Bond's original series of chapter books for readers and listeners up to 11 and fans of all ages.
