Paddington is back and he’s a nice as ever. Paddington Here and Now is no different than other books in the series in that it’s funny and calm. Kids in the 8-12 range will enjoy the humor here as Paddington has deadpan interactions with the humans of London. Things seems so out of control right now that a book like Paddington, with its kind people and sweet misunderstandings and resolutions, might help us all feel better.
