In letters to his aunt Lucy, Paddington describes his adventures in London. The stories will be familiar to fans of the original books, and Paddington's spin on each is mildly entertaining. The art, a mix of Fortnum's original illustrations and Alley's more recent ones, along with references to computers and the London Eye, make for odd and confusing juxtapositions of time periods.
