1. You can find a statue of Paddington in Paddington Station in London. Really! Paddington stands in his namesake station to greet visitors and travelers as they pass through London.

2. Paddington's creator, author Michael Bond, had the idea for Paddington in 1956 as he was wandering through a London department store on Christmas Eve, searching for a present for his wife. He saw a lonely teddy bear on a shelf and thought he looked like he needed a friend, so he brought his home and the rest in history!

3. Paddington books have been translated into over 40 languages! His adventures are enjoyed in countries all over the world.

4. If you know Paddington, we're sure you did know that his favorite thing is marmalade. But... did you know that his favorite marmalade is spiced orange?

​5. There are 14 different Paddington books by author Michael Bond. Not to mention movies, TV shows, and of course, concerts! After you're done listening to Paddington Bear's First Concert, join him on his many other adventures as he gets into trouble and warms the hearts of his family and friends.
