Paddington in Scots by Michael Bond

Now translated into Scots by James Robertson for the very first time, this classic children's tale is sure to delight Scots readers both new and old, and fans of Paddington, alike. Paddington Bear, the friendly bear from Peru - with his old hat, battered suitcase(complete with secret compartment), duffel coat and love of marmalade - has become a classic character from British children's literature. Enjoy the classic story of the bear from Darkest Peru who stowed away on a ship headed for England. He arrived at Paddington Station with nothing but a suitcase, a half-empty jar of marmalade and a label that read, 'Please look after this bear. Thank you.'
