A review by leiaslizzy
Paddington Races Ahead by Michael Bond

funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Despite having seen both of the films, I've never read any of the Paddington books before, so this was a first for me. He's such a sweetheart and always kind to everyone he meets. I especially loved his friendship with Mr Gruber, and reading about the mischief he gets up to!
