Mary Poppins

The Mary Poppins Series, Book 1

By: P. L. Travers

Narrated by: Sophie Thompson

Here is the timeless story of Mary Poppins, the world's favorite nanny, and her magical adventures with the Banks family.

Mary Poppins is like no other nanny the Banks children have ever seen. It all starts when their new nanny is blown by the east wind onto the doorstep of the Banks house, carrying a parrot-headed umbrella and a magic carpetbag. She becomes a most unusual nanny to Jane, Michael, and the twins. Who else but Mary Poppins can slide up banisters, pull an entire armchair out of an empty carpetbag, and make a dose of medicine taste like delicious lime-juice cordial? A day with Mary Poppins is a day of magic and make-believe come to life!

Sophie Thompson uggh

mary Poppins is a wonderfully fun and endearing read but every time Thompson goes into a character voice it is shrill and grating.

Very interesting to read the original story.

Fun and very different from Disney's version. Ready to hear the next book in the series!

LOVED it! Great narration.

Kids loved it! Very easy to follow along. Good narration with gcood voices to indicate different characters.

reading is painfully shrill

made it hard to get through in audio format. lost the interest of my children. plan on reading it aloud to them myself.

😋

I like this book a lot! I like the part when the really big lady steals the paper stars and sticks them to the sky! 💫🌟⭐🌠
