From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paddington Bear is a
fictional character in
children's literature. He first appeared on 13 October 1958
[1] and was subsequently featured in several books, most recently in 2008, written by
Michael Bond and first illustrated by
Peggy Fortnum. The polite immigrant bear from Darkest
Peru, with his old hat, battered suitcase,
duffle coat and love of
marmalade sandwiches has become a classic character from English
children's literature.
[2] Paddington books have been translated into thirty languages across seventy titles and sold more than 30 million copies worldwide. Over 265 licences, making thousands of different products across the United Kingdom, Europe, United States, Southeast Asia, Japan, Australia and South Africa all benefit from the universal recognition of Paddington Bear.

Paddington is an
anthropomorphised bear. He is always polite (always addressing people as "Mr.", "Mrs." and "Miss" and very rarely by first names) and well-meaning (though he inflicts very hard stares indeed on those who incur his disapproval). He likes marmalade sandwiches and
cocoa, and has an endless capacity for getting into trouble. However, he is known to "try so hard to get things right". He is an adoptive member of the (human) Brown family, and thus gives his full name as
Paddington Brown.
