Illustrated by
Catherine Rayner.
This novel by Paddington Bear's creator is reissued in a handsome oversize, fully illustrated edition. Here Bond recounts the daily adventures of a pet guinea pig. Olga's limited understanding of the human world and sweet temperament make for a pleasant story; Rayner's lovely watercolor and screen-printed illustrations add warmth and charm.
