Paddington Bear, illegal alien?
From the LA Times Blog (Swati Pandey)
After a three-decade-long hiatus, Paddington Bear will return to children’s lit only to find he’s not as welcome as he was in 1958. In a new set of stories by 81-year-old Paddington creator Michael Bond, the refugee bear will face questioning by British immigration authorities. But Bond promises that all will turn out well in the end for Paddington who is, of course, a model immigrant, regardless of his legal status.
