Paddington in the Garden is a warm, funny and nostalgic picture book by the famous English author Michael Bond. In this story, children discover the world of gardening together with the beloved Peruvian bear. 🐻🌱
At the Brown family, everyone has their own task in the large garden at 32 Windsor Gardens. Jonathan, Judy and Paddington also get their own patch of land to make something beautiful of.
Paddington naturally wants to get started, but bear paws turn out not to be very handy for planting delicate flowers. Fortunately, he seeks help in a gardening book. What follows is a series of funny events involving builders, cement and a lost jar of marmalade. 🍊
In the end, Paddington still manages to create a beautiful rock garden. During the National Garden Week, his garden even turns out to be particularly successful!
A delightful story to read and look at together, with humor, adventure and a touch of gardening.
