Summary: Paddington Bear always manages to find himself in tricky situations, sometimes extraordinary situations. Like the time he had a difficult encounter with a policeman or when he found himself in deep water with a newspaper reporter. But since arriving from his native Peru after an earthquake, Paddington has always felt at home with the Brown family who found him on Paddington Station. Then one day, a mysterious visitor arrives at thirty-two Windsor Gardens. Is it time for Paddington to decide where 'home' really is?
