About the Books
This three-book hardcover set gathers some of Paddington Bear's most interactive picture book adventures, each designed with real tactile inserts that little hands can open and explore. In Paddington's Christmas Post, the beloved bear helps the Brown family get ready for the holidays, and readers can open five envelopes tucked into the pages to find an Advent calendar, a handmade Christmas card addressed to Aunt Lucy, and a bear-shaped tree decoration. Paddington's Twelve Days of Christmas follows Paddington as he overhears the Brown family singing about festive gifts and sets off to solve the mystery of the missing partridge in a pear tree, leading to a delightful Christmas Day surprise of his own making. Rounding out the set, Paddington's Post explores Paddington's earliest days in London after arriving from Darkest Peru and meeting Mr. and Mrs. Brown at Paddington Station; six envelopes inside reveal his first letter to Aunt Lucy, a half-price voucher for his favorite marmalade buns, and a special birthday card. Together, these stories showcase Paddington's warmth, curiosity, and knack for good-natured trouble, all brought vividly to life through bright illustrations and genuine paper surprises tucked into nearly every spread. Collected here in sturdy, gift-ready hardcover editions, the set makes it simple for parents, grandparents, and teachers alike to share Paddington's charming adventures again and again, whether as a cherished holiday reading tradition or a year-round family favorite enjoyed long after the season ends.

About the Authors
Michael Bond (1926-2017) was an English author who created Paddington Bear, introducing him in 1958's A Bear Called Paddington. Inspired by a lone toy bear he spotted on a London shop shelf, Bond went on to write dozens of Paddington stories beloved by generations of readers, and he was awarded a CBE in 2015 for his services to children's literature. Karen Jankel has continued the Paddington legacy by co-writing several of the character's recent picture books, helping bring his gentle humor and curiosity to a new generation of young fans.
