Paddington is not just an ordinary little bear. Hailing from Peru, he wears a red hat and loves marmalade sandwiches. When an earthquake destroys his home, his aunt sends him to London to find a new family. Alone and abandoned at Paddington Station, he slowly discovers that life in the big city is not exactly as he had imagined. Fortunately, he meets the Brown family, who take him in, despite the categorical disapproval of Mr. Brown – a typical, orderly and a bit boring Brit.
