Paddington's Picnic

Michael Bond, Illustrated by Nick Ward
Published by Young Lion
0-00-674673-X, £2.75

A must for all young Paddington fans. Although the illustrations do support the text a great deal, there are a lot of 'difficult' words and phrases which a larger size of print face hardly mitigates. This is the sort of book that needs an adult reading first, followed by a lot of adult help during the first attempted readings, after which the fledgling reader really will fly!
