One of the most famous bears in the world is dressed in a blue coat and a battered red hat. He loves marmalade, tries everything new with pleasure and does not hang up his nose even in the most difficult situations. And there is a monument to him in London at Paddington Station. Guess who it is? Of course, the bear cub named Paddington, the literary symbol of England.
Books about his adventures have been sold in millions of copies since 1958 and have long become classics of children's literature.
To get to London from Dense Peru, you need to sail on a ship for a long, long time, and then go by train. That is exactly what the little bear cub in the wide-brimmed red hat did when he found himself at Paddington Station one day. And luck smiled on the brave traveler: right on the platform, he met Mr. and Mrs. Brown, thanks to whom he found friends, his own room, a blue coat, and also a sonorous name - Paddington. Ever since an inquisitive and very active bear cub settled in the Browns' house, amazing events often take place there. This is such a bear - something happens to him all the time!
