Sobre este artículo
Houghton Mifflin, 1958. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. Fortnum, Peggy. Stated "Tenth Printing C" of the original US edition, so probably circa 1962. A tight, lovely copy with no markings, illustrated throughout with Fortnum's line drawings. Bright yellow jacket is price-clipped and has a few bumps and one closed tear but is in displayable condition. A really nice copy.
Sinopsis
A lonely toy bear on an otherwise empty shop shelf on Christmas Eve in 1956 first captured the attention of Michael Bond. Enamored, the BBC employee brought the stuffed bear home to his wife. They named the bear Paddington after the station near their home in London, and thus inspired, Bond began to write a few cute stories about the bear's adventures starting with A Bear Called Paddington in October 1958. The friendly bear with his old hat, battered suitcase, duffel coat and love of marmalade—has become a classic character from British children's literature and has become popular with American audiences as well.
