The plot moves somewhat slowly and the action is mostly what one would expect from a 5 or 6 year old--except that it's a bear--but the charming language and the way in which is told makes all the difference.

Bacon in a suitcase--indeed!

Chapter Seven: Adventure at the Seaside
The set up for this was short and sweet and the ending was what we've come to love in a Paddington story.

Chapter Eight: A Disappearing Trick
This is just hilariously charming. I do wish the uncivil neighbor had been better set up in a prior story, but the short treatment done here is sufficient for the hilarity that ensues with Paddington attempting a magic show.

Chapter 5: Paddington and the "Old Master"
The pledge and the turn are reasonably well executed, but the prestige is lacking a bit.

Chapter 6: A Visit to the Theater
It's episodes like this that make me wonder why they turned Paddington into a movie instead of a TV sitcom.
