Paddington and the Grand Tour: Band 15/Emerald (Collins Big Cat)

Product Information

And after it is all over Paddington considers a future career as a tour captain when he is old enough. He says, 'It seems a very good job for a rainy day. Especially if you have your own umbrella!' Over the years, Paddington has been illustrated by a number of different people. Which style of illustration do you prefer? Why? Paddington jumbles up the words and pictures from his booklet. Could you find out some facts about London (or another place) and some related images? Then jumble them up and ask a friend to match them together correctly. Chaos ensues as once the tour begins people hop off the bus and the surrounding area 'looks like a battlefield', according to Mr Gruber. So he takes Paddington away to a little tea shop where he says they can read the guide book given them 'until the fuss dies down'.

Plan a route for a London tour bus (or for a tour of your local area) and create a set of directions for the bus driver.On the way to join the tour bus they stop in a park and Paddington eats his sandwiches while Mr Gruber shows him some photographs of the places he wants to visit on what he called the 'Hop-On - Hop Off bus'. When they arrive to board the bus Paddington is surprised to discover that it has no roof. 'I think the driver must have gone under a low bridge by mistake,' he exclaimed. Mr Gruber explains that it is made that way so that passengers have a good view of the sights. One excited fan, @ringogarbonzo wrote: “I hope it’s a 1.5 to 2 hour episode. We’ve been waiting!” Another @bo55_agr exclaimed: “The best photo I have seen all day! The Return!!” as they eagerly awaited the return of the Grand Tour." READ BY PAUL VAUGHAN. Paddington is very excited. He is going on a day trip around the city with his friend, Mr Gruber. With his suitcase full of marmalade sandwiches and Mrs Bird’s umbrella in case it rains, the bear from darkest Peru is ready for anything. Or almost. How is Paddington to know that the other tourists will think he was their tour guide? And how could he guess that they will follow him everywhere? Chaos and humour are hand-in-hand in this new story about the bear who always gets it right in the end. Je ne lis visiblement pas les albums dans l'ordre, car Paddington a un meilleur ami dans celui-ci que je ne connais pas du tout, mais cela n'a aucune importance. C'est vraiment le genre d'histoire qui peut se lire indépendamment et j'apprécie cela.

Create some puppet versions of the characters in this story and use them to perform it to an audience. The reason that everyone has gathered around Paddington is that they think he is the tour captain because they say tour captains always hold up their umbrella to show who they are. 'I'm not a tour captain. I'm a bear,' said Paddington, most annoyed. But the tourists think that the hopping on and off the bus is a quaint old English custom and when they discover that it isn't, they are too late for the bus has moved on.

Paddington tries to say, '... I'm forming a que ...' but nobody takes any notice of him. He then expains to everyone that it is a hop-on hop-off bus which means that the passengers look at the view and then hop off! By then it is raining so Paddington raises Mr Bird's umbrella to keep dry. In the tea shop everyone else gathers and Paddington and Mr Gruber get no peace; 'I'm beginning to wish I had brought my disguise outfit,' declares Mr Gruber! Plan a tour of your local area. Which places would your tour visit? What would you tell guests about each location? Can you plan the route for the bus?
