Story
"A bear on Paddington Station?" said Mrs Brown in amazement. "Don't be silly - there can't be." The Browns first met Paddington on a railway station - Paddington station, in fact. He had travelled all the way from Darkest Peru with only a jar of marmalade, a suitcase and his hat. The Browns soon found that Paddington was a very unusual bear.

Story
Alan Bennett reads A. A. Milne's much-loved stories about a small bear and his friends. The collection includes Winnie-the-Pooh, The House at Pooh Corner and A Party for Pooh. What is the connection between a bear of very little brain and a honey pot? Usually it's the very sticky paw of Winnie-the-Pooh, as he takes a break between adventures for a little something. In these stories, Pooh goes visiting and gets into a tight place, Eeyore loses a tail and Piglet meets a Heffalump.

Come with us to an Enchanted Place, a forest where Winnie-the-Pooh lived with Piglet, Rabbit, Owl, Eeyore, Kanga, and Little Roo. The stories are about Christopher Robin and these good companions having wonderful times getting in and out of trouble. It is all very exciting and, really, quite thrilling no matter how young or old you may be. It is painful to try and imagine what the world would be like without them.

new bedtime ritual for my little girls
I chose this audio book for my 4 and 6 year old girls as I thought they will soon grow out of these kinds of stories. It has become a lovely bedtime routine and my eldest has pulled out their hard back version to read along to. I do have to remember to collect the ipad or it'll play well into the night being 5 hrs plus!

Lovely recordings but shame about the metadata
The stories are classics and the recordings are great but the metadata is terrible. It's impossible to identify which story is which without waiting to hear the intro. Could Audible and/or the publisher please label the different tales by their names rather than as chapter 1,2,3 etc?

Great book!!
Would you consider the audio edition of Beatrix Potter: The Complete Tales to be better than the print version?
Probably. The audio edition has musical and sound effects that makes it more fun to listen to. My toddler son loves to listen to this book. Whenever he's in the car I would ask him whether he likes to listen to music or story and his reply has always been "rabbit story". I have tried to play other books in the car but he would scream and wanted to hear this book instead.
