Житейски урок: Когато подариш на 4-годишния племеник 3 книги за Коледа, ще трябва да прочетеш на глас поне 2 от тях още на Бъдни вечер.

Радвам се, че реших да изчакам с "Хари Потър".

This was really not that cute, despite Paddington. He spends most of the book being annoyed or disappointed and I'm not sure why the store people are so rude to him. The cute ending doesn't quite make up for the rest.

I'm kind of sad because I expected much more from this one. Paddington and Christmas--two things I love! What could go wrong? A lot, it turns out. The story is really disjointed and negative and ultimately casts doubt on the magic of Santa Claus, which isn't something most parents of young children want to do. I'd give it 1.5 stars if I could.

I hope Santa knows just what I want for Christmas this year!

This is one of my favourite Christmas books so far this year, lovely story, delightful illustrations and captures the festive spirit excellently.

Paddington takes the Brown family to Barkridges department store to meet, as he says, 'Mr Claus' and to take a ride through Winter Wonderland. And Paddington wants to ask Mr Claus where he makes his marmalade, as that is Paddington's favourite.

But for one reason or another things don't turn out as Paddington or the Browns expect. Firstly the store is almost empty with no atmosphere, the manager then queries Paddington's credentials, Paddington is disenchanted with the sleigh ride, 'I think I prefer Mrs Bird's window box,' he exclaims, and then, after finding fault with the lighthouse at the North Pole - its lights kept flashing -, he goes missing.

Eventually he is found, having been investigating the faulty lights on the lighthouse but whatever he had done, the result is that all the lights in the store go out! The manager is far from pleased and looks for Paddington to chastise him. But the Browns smuggle him away to escape the wrath of the manager.

Next morning it is headlines in the newspapers about a mystery bear being in the store and causing problems.'Crowds Flock to Santa's Workshop' screams one headline. So while the Browns are finishing breakfast Mrs Bird sneaks away to make a telephone call; she is obviously aware of what a bit of good publicity can do!

The next thing we know is that Paddington is being feted by the store manager, who tells Paddington that since the episode with the lights there have been queues all round the block to see the Christmas display and also to see the mystery bear. 'It's just like old times,' he declares. And he tells Paddington that after a free sleigh ride Santa wants to see him.

And when Paddington meets Santa there is a special present for him ... I wonder if you can guess what it was? The clue is that Paddington knew very well that Mr Claus made his own!

A lovely book and very Christmassy!

Няма как да не чакаш декември с нетърпение – Коледа, елхи, подаръци, ваканция и празнична атмосфера... Но за многобройните фенове на мечето Падингтън миналият декември беше особено очакван! Първата причина бе премиерата на „Падингтън 2”, който не просто ме очарова, но се превърна и в любимия ми филм за изминалата година. Лентата явно не е стоплила само моето сърце, тъй като „Падингтън 2” отнесе 3 номинации BAFTA. Но казах ДВЕ причини, нали така? А ето я и втората – книжката „Падингтън и коледната изненада” (изд. „Агата-А”). Прочетете ревюто на "Книжни Криле":

Так як я не знайома з ведмедиком Педдінґтоном, то й із персонажами цієї історії не дуже склалося, бо тут геть не пояснюється, хто є хто. І це книжечка-картинка, тож для дуже маленьких діток. Коротше, щоб читати цю історію, тре бути знайомими з ведмедиком. Сама історія не прям цікава чи повчальна, та й ілюстрації мені не дуже сподобалися.

This is the first Paddington story that I've read, so I didn't have any expectations. It seems like Paddington is the youngest member of a human family. On a lack-luster trip to a department store, Paddington is disappointed ... but he's happy at the end.

not a keeper

Paddington wanted a refund in the book a bit of a Karen

[Kayleigh · Rating 4 out of 5]

Really cute

[Ty-Orion · Rating 2 out of 5]

Съжалявам, но не мога да препоръчам тази книжка. Историята е несвързана, Падингтън през цялото време е намусен и се оплаква, направо разваля настроението...

[Knigoqdec · Rating 2 out of 5]

Аз Падингтън не го познавам чак толкова добре, но конкретно в тази книжка, въпреки че беше сладко мече, беше като цяло раздразнителен, надут и мрънкащ... така че не смея да давам големи определения...

Na początku chciałabym napisać, że R.W. Alley wykonał kawał dobrej roboty, tworząc przepiękne kolorowe ilustracje do tej książki. Na uwagę zasługuje również niesamowita wklejka, która zachwyca swoją formą.

Muszę niestety przyznać, że sama opowieść mnie jakoś szczególnie nie zachwyciła. Czego bowiem dowiedzą się z tej historii dzieci? Pewnie tego, że miś rozrabiaka za rozróby w domu handlowym w ostateczności otrzyma wymarzony prezent a rodzina zawsze pomoże nam w wyjściu z tarapatów. Szczerze mówiąc, wolałabym aby najmłodsi byli świadomi tego, że należy cierpliwie czekać na prezenty, które mamy otrzymać z okazji świąt. Nie ma co przyśpieszać biegu wydarzeń, bo zepsujemy całą przygotowaną niespodziankę.

Such a fun little Christmas holiday read!

I enjoyed this book so much, I miss reading picture books, I should read so many more these days then I do already. :(

The art was amazing and the storyline really made sense and clarity towards the end.

What a well-done miniature masterpiece!!!

(I love the humor and drag-line jokes between Paddington Bear and Jonathon about how a light house should work. L.O.L.)

I used to love Paddington Bear books as a child. This is my first visit as an adult and it left me somewhat confused and unsatisfied. I feel like this story is extracted from a longer story as it doesn’t always quite make sense. I felt there was something missing. It was a bit funny and nice colourful illustrations.

After seeing a lot of Christmas reading list, on which this book was mentioned, I had to read this one. It is a quick and very nice Christmas picture book. I really love myself a bit of Paddington every now and then.

[Marcus · Rating 4 out of 5]

Charming character in some charming Christmas capers. Paddington is getting poor value for his ‘bun money’ at a dilapidated department store; can the day be saved and does Father Christmas make his own marmalade?

[Diane · Rating 2 out of 5]

Overall I've been disappointed with the picture books of Paddington. The characters are more endearing and humorous in the chapter books... everything in the picture books we've read so far seem very contrived.

[Zachary Johnston · Rating 2 out of 5]

I mean, it’s Paddington and Christmas, so there’s plenty that could have been done, but the story is disjointed and quite negative. It comes across as being badly edited and missing story, not to mention strange flow to the illustrations. Don’t bother.

[Conquering · Rating 2 out of 5]

Story assumes you know the characters from the Paddington series. Not an easy read aloud.

[Wsclai · Rating 3 out of 5]

A tale about PB that will capture children's attention. Very colourful and vibrant illustrations.

[Slow Man · Rating 3 out of 5]

The story is weak but the drawings are lush. I expect more but sometimes more is not available. So I have to settle for less.

trop mignon trop chou et les illustrations sont magnifiques! (non possédé mais lu au salon de Montreuil)

Just a mess

[Amynicole · Rating 4 out of 5]

Reading Padding is a lot like Curious George... curious & disastrous at times. I love the soft illustrations better.

Класически Падингтън с белички и мармалад!

Super cute Paddington picture book.

Go Paddington! Is there any faults at the fabric, Paddington will fix it.
