Mr. & Mrs. Brown first met Paddington - a most endearing bear from Darkest Peru - on a railway platform in Londaon. A sign hanging around his neck said, "Please look after this bear. Thank you." So that is just what they did.

From the very first night wehn he attempted his frist bath and ended up nearly flooding the house, Paddington was seldom far from imminent disaster. Johanthan and Judy were delighted with this havoc and even Mr. and Mrs. Brown had to admit theat life seemed to be more filled with adventure when there was a bear in the house.
