As a London tour guide, I take visitors around to the various Paddington locations. As a little girl, Paddington was my first introduction to anything British. While I didn't develop my love for marmalade sandwiches until I moved to London, I enjoyed watching Paddington get into all kinds of trouble on his adventures. Paddington is a fish out of water, and just like everyone, he always finds a way to enjoy life. These wonderful stories are an excellent metaphor for finding your way in a new place, or even just remembering to be kind.
