Paddington at the Circus

The circus comes to town, and Paddington and the Brown family are eager to check out the show. When a trapeze artist swings close by, Paddington becomes a star, just like the clown and acrobats Paddington's circus debut makes this show a performance to remember.

Michael Bond's beloved character, Paddington Bear, has warmed readers' hearts for over 50 years with his earnest good intentions and humorous misadventures. Illustrated by R. W. Alley, this newly repackaged edition of the classic picture book is the perfect introduction to Paddington Bear for young readers.

Michael Bond began chronicling Paddington's adventures in his first book, A Bear Called Paddington, published in 1958. Fortunately, bears don't need much encouragement, and Paddington has since filled the pages of twelve further novels, a variety of picture books, and many other projects written for the young at heart.

R. W. Alley has illustrated a number of books featuring Paddington Bear. He lives in Barrington, Rhode Island, with his wife, author Zoë B. Alley.
