Boy what exuberance was found in my five and three year old daughters as we opened our review box today and discovered five new Paddington titles. We're about 80% completed through [b:A Bear Called Paddington|20530951|A Bear Called Paddington|Michael Bond|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1393012058s/20530951.jpg|1544060] and excited to start [b:More about Paddington|22138406|More about Paddington|Michael Bond|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1404476220s/22138406.jpg|1165345] soon. We're also not movie-goer people, but I'm fairly certain we'll go to see the Paddington movie when it releases in January as Paddington has become quite the staple read in our evenings.

'Paddington's World' is a neat little interactive 8x8" paperback book as I mentioned previously and in addition to all the activity within these pages there is also a bit of a story to be told about what the movie will tell, and even more of this story is told in the other movie tie-in 8x8" paperback of 'Paddington in London'.

'Paddington in London' appearance-wise is like a scrapbook from the movie with lots of shots of what I'm sure we're to see on film and it tells more details on scenes that I'm sure are to take place including several with Mr. Brown.

I'm actually quite surprised to see there are characters that I'm not yet familiar with... I guess we need to keep on in our trekking of reading the Paddington chapter books.
