baronessekat 's review for:
Mary Poppins
by P.L. Travers
It was cute.
As someone who grew up to the Disney version, it took me a bit to get into this book and not mentally compare the characters in the books to the characters in the movie. But I totally understand why PL Travers disliked Disney and refused to authorize any further movies.
What I did like about the book is that each chapter is its own individual short story, thus I treated is almost like an anthology rather than a full story.
I was not the audience meant for this book, and to be honest I'm glad I didn't read it as a child. But I can say that i am glad I read it as an adult.
