by P.L. Travers

This is one
very interesting and well, classical(sort of. It's a classic
right?) book. It sure is very old too( 1900s I think). This
book is about Mary Poppins, a nanny who came down from the sky
in an umbrella. The children are Jane(the oldest kid of the
Banks family), John(second oldest), and the baby twins, John
and Barbara. These children abosolutely love Mary Poppins, and of
course they wonder when she is going away. She
came by the east wind and she will leave in the opposite
wind direction. I think the chorus of "I'll leave when the wind blows"
by The All-American Rejects is very suitable for this book if
it was a movie. Mary Poppins is very amazing
and magical. She can pull out clothes and hangers
and stuff like that out of an EMPTY CARPET BAG!!! How cool is
that! M.P can pull out a camp bed from under the kids'
beds, which was originally EMPTY! M.P. is also very vain, looking
at her reflection every chance she gets. She also
has this bottle of medicine for taking once a day before
bedtime.
The good things about the story is that it
is interesting although it is old. The bad things,
well, I don't think there is any bad stuff about the
story
