Paddington and the Grand Tour

Written by Michael Bond

Narrated by Stephen Fry

A funny story about Paddington, the world’s favourite bear – now a major movie star! Performed by Stephen Fry.

READ BY PAUL VAUGHAN. Paddington is very excited. He is going on a day trip around the city with his friend, Mr Gruber. With his suitcase full of marmalade sandwiches and Mrs Bird’s umbrella in case it rains, the bear from darkest Peru is ready for anything. Or almost. How is Paddington to know that the other tourists will think he was their tour guide? And how could he guess that they will follow him everywhere? Chaos and humour are hand-in-hand in this new story about the bear who always gets it right in the end.
