    I predict that Mr Brown will say okay. But I also predict that Mr Brown will still be worried about his children. I predict they will call him Paddington as the book is called ‘A bear called PADDINGTON.’
    But I’m still predicting so don’t stop reading!
    I predict his children will love the Paddinton because he causes trouble and he turns boring stuff into fun stuff. I predict that Paddington will meet a old relative called Mrs Bird. I predict that Judy’s brother likes cool, fun and amazing stuff because when he grows up he wants to become an astronaut. I predict that Mr Brown is a bissnes man so he trys to work hard.

    Paddington will go into Mr and Mrs Brown’s house for a few days until they find someone else to give Paddington to.

Also I think they will keep him for a few days because they cant just leave Paddington on the streets and in the text Mrs Brown says they should keep Paddington.

    Predict what might happen next to Paddington in the story. Give reasons from the text as to why you think this. Draw a picture of the scene.

    I predict that the Browns will adopt him. I think this because Mrs Brown seems so determined that Paddington should get a home. This is because in page 5 Mrs Brown says to her husband, “Oh, Henry, what shall we do? We can’t just leave him here. There’s no knowing what might happen to him. London’s such a big place when you’ve nowhere to go. Can’t he come and stay with us for a few days?”

    I will draw a picture in my homework book.
