In these misadventures in England, Paddington takes a driving test, visits a stately home, gets a raise in his allowance, and takes part in a magic act.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Gr. 3-5, younger for reading aloud. The new edition of Paddington Takes a Test has a more attractive jacket, wider pages, and larger type than the original American edition (1980). The minimal changes to the text consist of shifts from the English spellings of certain words to the American; for example, changing "centre" to "center," "colour" to "color," and "manoeuvre" to "maneuver." Apart from the jacket illustration, which is entirely new, Peggy Fortnum's original drawings illustrate this well-designed new edition. Carolyn Phelan
