My First Trip to London
 
 
    Well, at last I knew who had been following me--Paddington Bear!  Now, I’ve been camping in many places and seen bears before, but this bear was different.  Camping bears are very large and a bit scary and have very long claws and teeth, and while they’re not really mean or grumpy, they don’t much care whether you’re in their way.  And they do get very grumpy if they think you have food that they want!

    But this bear was not like that.  He’s a much friendlier size, and would much rather whisper stories in your ear, or just sit beside you in a noisy train station.  He even introduced me to some of his friends!
 
Quite friendly, for a bear
