En vacances, Paddington ne s'ennuie pas une seconde. Mais entre la partie de pêche et le Tour de France, il trouve quand même le temps de provoquer quelques catastrophes...

Les vacances de Paddington

'A celebration of human idiosyncrasy and of our talent for building shared meaning and solidarity out of the strangest material' - TLSFans takes the reader on a journey through a constellation of fandoms, and along the way demonstrates some fundamental truths about the human condition. Fascinating and thought-provoking, Fans is a story of communities, of what happens to us when we interact with people who share our passions. The human brain is wired to reach out, and while our groupish tendencies can bring much strife (religious intolerance, racism, war, etc.), they are also the source of some of our greatest satisfactions. Fandoms offer much of the pleasure of tribalism with little of the harm: a feeling of belonging and of shared culture, a sense of meaning and purpose, improved mental well-being, reassurance that our most outlandish convictions will be taken seriously, and the freedom to try to emulate (and dress like) our hero. But acclaimed science writer Michael Bond shows that despite these benefits, the world of fandoms is not without its dark underside, from the "copycat effect" fuelling mass shootings to the delusions that can accompany the parasocial relationships that fans feel they have with their heroes. In Fans, Michael Bond draws on the work of social psychologists and anthropologists to understand how people behave in groups and why such groups have such a profound effect on human culture.

Fans - A Journey into the Psychology of Belonging

Paddington Marches On

The irresistible, classic bear from Darkest Peru, who was found on Paddington station, causes havoc while out sight-seeing!

 When Paddington visits the Tower of London he makes sure he has enough marmalade sandwiches to sustain him - a whole suitcase in fact!

 Unfortunately, it is not only bears who like sandwiches as Paddington is soon to discover.

Paddington at the Tower

« — Je me demande où Paddington peut bien être, s'inquiéta Mme Brown. Il est presque l'heure du déjeuner, et ça ne lui ressemble pas d'être en retard pour manger. »
Même si le petit ours ne manquerait un repas pour rien au monde, il est souvent très occupé. Pêcher un poisson, participer à une vente aux enchères, bricoler, aller au cinéma, faire une lessive et cuisiner pour les Brown cloués au lit à cause d'une vilaine maladie…
Peu importe la situation, Paddington est toujours là pour venir au secours de ses amis ou des personnes dans le besoin, quitte à se retrouver au cœur de situations tarabiscotées. Ainsi, arrivera-t-il à prêter patte forte à cet organiste manchot qui souhaite jouer de la musique coûte que coûte ?

 When the Browns find Paddington lying on the lawn, unable to remember where he is or even what the word "bun" means, they immediately realise something is seriously wrong and send for an ambulance. It's Paddington's first time in hospital and the doctors and nurses soon discover that he is rather an unusual patient!

 Full of the humorous misunderstandings and adventures that this lovable bear is famous for, this is a great story for the young Paddington fan who is apprehensive, or merely curious, about what goes on inside a hospital.

Paddington Goes to Hospital

« C'est drôle, dit M. Brown en tirant une longue bouffée sur sa pipe, mais j'ai parcouru cette encyclopédie une dizaine de fois, et nulle part il n'est fait mention d'un ours comme Paddington. – Ah mais ça ne m'étonne pas ! s'exclama Mme Bird. Les ours comme Paddington sont très rares. Et c'est une bonne chose, à mon avis, sinon cela nous coûterait une fortune en marmelade ! »
