Mary Poppins in the Park |
By P.L. Travers, the author featured in the upcoming movie Saving Mr. Banks.
From the moment Mary Poppins arrives at Number Seventeen Cherry-Tree Lane, everyday life at the Banks house is forever changed. This classic series tells the story of the world's most beloved nanny, who brings enchantment and excitement with her everywhere she goes. Featuring the charming original cover art by Mary Shepard, these new editions are sure to delight readers of all ages.
Only the incomparable Mary Poppins can lead the Banks children on one marvelous adventure after another. Together they meet the Goosegirl and the Swineherd, argue with talking cats on a distant planet, make the acquaintance of the folks who live under dandelions, and celebrate a birthday by dancing with their own shadows. And that’s just for starters!

As a mature adult who was just curious to experience the original, I can't say whether Mary Poppins will appeal to a child. But the book certainly didn't appeal to me. I found the title character cold and incomprehensible. The story does not have a plot thread, except that Mary Poppins appears suddenly and exits suddenly. The chapters detailing the many strange happenings in Mary's company have no connection to one another. Her stint as a nanny has no positive effect on the parents. In fact the mother is happy to see her gone. Mary's powers to shift between "reality" and some parallel universe come from having relatives in the animal kingdom!
I much prefer the Disney movie, in which the family benefits from Mary's presence by evolving in a more playful, loving way. And Mary seems to really care about the children in the film, which, to my astonishment, doesn't come across in the book. The book's children are drawn to her, but she seems distant, mysterious, stern, and unpredictable. We were sorry to have her delightful image spoiled.
After watching the movie "Saving Mr. Banks", I bought this book. The movie I thought was amazing. The ending even better as it brought the character and movie home. This book I bought as I was curious how accurate the movie was on the fighting for the character and scenes was. This book proved to be well written. I tried to read it as just a classic book that was so popular back before the movie. How in the movie said, "this book was something kids loved to read". Probably true before TV and Harry Potter. This is an amazing book in its own right. It's simple and creates in depth characters and fantasies that you will be able to compare with both movies, "Mary Poppins" and "Saving Mr. Banks". I loved the book. I would have set out for the adventure I did by reading both, Mary Poppins and Marry Poppins, She Wrote to compare and delve further into the history of this whole project and now historical movie. I would suggest reading Mary Poppins first. Then get into the book about the life of P.L. Travers. Good Luck!
I saw this book at Downtown Disney on our most recent vacation. I figured I could get it cheaper from amazon, and decided to order once I got home. It is a really cute layout, and has some fun recipes in it. It has a very clean design to the recipe pages, that I think is very inviting to children. Most of the recipes are quite simple, and are great for when children are helping in the kitchen. I love children's literature cookbooks, and this one is no exception!
