Mary Poppins is a magical nanny who sweeps into the Banks home on Cherry Tree Lane and takes charge of the Banks children. It was not as creepy as the first one, and I honestly don't know if it was because I got used to her creepiness or it was actually less creepy.All four are in very good plus condition with illustrated covers and black and white drawings in the text by Mary Shepard. This time, they visit her cousin Fred Twigley, befriend a statue that has come to life, go riding on peppermint horses, and experience a garden party under the sea. In the stage musical, she is a former actress who is under constant pressure from her husband as she struggles to enter his social circle.

Book is Fine except for bumps to head and heel of spine and a couple of spots on the top page edges. In the books, she is the struggling mistress of the Banks household, and is easily intimidated by Mary Poppins, who treats her with thinly veiled contempt.

I read and adored Tom Sawyer, but the story is about Tom coming to see Jim as a person instead of property.
