Mary Poppins Comes Back

Mary Poppins, Book 2

De: P. L. Travers

Narrado por: Sophie Thompson

Another timeless story about Mary Poppins, the world's favorite nanny, and her magical adventures with the Banks family.

From the moment Mary Poppins arrives at Number Seventeen Cherry Tree Lane, everyday life at the Banks house is forever changed. Jane, Michael, and the twins have never had such a wonderful nanny, who brings enchantment and excitement everywhere she goes.

In Mary Poppins Comes Back, the beloved nanny returns when she's pulled down from the clouds by the string of Michael's kite. In her care, the Banks children meet the King of the Castle and the Dirty Rascal, visit the upside-down world of Mr. Turvy and his bride, Miss Topsy, and spend a breathless afternoon above the park, dangling from a clutch of balloons. Surprises are sure to pop up when Mary Poppins is around!

A Different World Than I Thought

I am totally surprised by the difference between the movie version of Mary Poppins and the book version. Practically perfect in every way is what I grew up thinking of her and now I'm reading that she was originally written as conceited, vain and moody, hardly what I would call a well brought up person let alone a person worthy of imitation. Still it is quite the fantastic story!

Great story, well read.

Enjoyed the story and the ready did a fantastic job reading. Loved how the different people's voices were done.

LOVED.... thank you P.L. Travers for the adventure

Once again Miss Travers you amaze and delight us...
thank you for the adventure 💗

Not like the TV show!!!!!!!

The TV show made Mary Poippins look very nice, but she is not!!!!

I like Mary Poppins, but she can be very mean.

Mary Poppins is a fun story.

Not up to first book

Less fresh and original than Mary Poppins and occasionally lapses into sentimentality. But children are less critical and love it anyway. The lively reading will appeal to young listeners.

Great book Krishna

I love the book I hate the movie in the book I like the character of Mary Poppins in the movie I think that the plot is not as good so I give the movie three stars in the book 5 stars

Delightful Nonsense

These are stories from a simpler time, and they offer a balm to those who can surrender themselves to the wild ride without cynicism or the need to critique.

Not the sappy movie

(As posted in GoodReads.)
I do so like Mary Poppins! The books by PL Travers are SO MUCH better than the movie!! The whole personality of Mary Poppins is so much better in the books, and it seems to treat children overall with much more respect – although there is no arguing with the fact that there is magic, and at first glance, Mary Poppins seems harsh and shrew- like. She has a reputation for not explaining anything, but the children need to learn and absorb realities on their own – but certainly Mary Poppins provides them the environment. I love her, and I hate the movie…

Love Mary Poppins

I've been a fan of Mary Poppins since I was young. I never learned that there were books about Mary Poppins until I was older. Being able to listen to them for free on Audible has been a godsend to fulfill a long standing "want" in my reading list.

The stories are quite interesting. It's interesting to compare and contrast the Mary Poppins of the books to the Mary Poppins of the movie.

I gave only four stars for the performance due to the "singing" bits. The narrator has a great reading voice, but should never seek a career in singing.

Great book

I loved this book such good narration like I said great book dident know there were 6 mary popins books
