Mary Poppins flies in on a rocket (firecracker) on Guy Fawkes Day. The usual wonderful adventures ensue, with Mary being tart, sarcastic, and dictatorial - nothing at all like Julie Andrews!! We have encounters with Peppermint Horses, a Cat that looks at the King, and a statue named Neleus, among others. When the "Other Door" opens and she leaves, she is seen off by many of the series characters not only from this book, but from the previous ones. We are left with the feeling this might really be the real end. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0152058222, Hardcover)

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.

Mary Poppins reappears just in time! According to her tape measure, Jane and Michael have grown "Worse and Worse" since she went away. But the children won't have time to be naughty with all that Mary has planned for them. A visit to Mr. Twigley’s music box-filled attic, an encounter with the Marble Boy, and a ride on Miss Calico’s enchanted candy canes are all part of an average day out with everyone's favorite nanny.
