3.0 out of 5 stars This is NOT a comprehensive collection of the Paddington stories!, June 7, 2007

A. P. (NYC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Paddington Treasury (Paddington Bear) (Hardcover)

The publisher's description and reviews neglect to mention that all of the stories in this collection have been abridged. The only reason I didn't give this book fewer stars is because I like the watercolored illustrations (which goes to show that not all changes are bad), and because Paddington is still enjoyable reading, even when edited down. I just wish they had published a color edition of the INTACT stories, or at the very least they should have made it clear upfront that entire chapters have been omitted.

3.0 out of 5 stars treasury of Paddington Bear, November 23, 2008

daisy barton (new jersey) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Paddington Treasury (Paddington Bear) (Hardcover)

While all the Paddington stories are wonderful, an anthology of this size is too large for little ones to cuddle up with. Not enough pictures for little listeners. Single volumes would be a better bet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Please look after this bear, April 15, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Paddington Treasury (Paddington Bear) (Hardcover)

Paddington, a small bear from "darkest Peru," definitely needs looking after as he always finds himself in one sticky situation after another. I discovered P. only a few years ago. I had MEANT to read the P. books for YEARS, but somehow hadn't gotten around to it. After I finally read A Bear Called Paddington, frequently laughing out loud at Paddingtons' "situations," I immediately found the next three books, then the next three...

I am delighted that the Paddington books have now been bound in one volume and am equally delighted to be adding this to my collection.
