Mary Poppins by P.L. Travers
3.0
rating 2.5 stars
I can't say much beyound the fact that I am quite confused. I know the story progressed in such a mystical way for some reason and that we must accept it but I am lost on that reason. Yet I can't help but feel gratified at the ending regardless. Moreover, the accepting the madness or rolling with the adventure seems to be a reacurring theme in these classics such as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. As much as I'd like to read that one for the fun, I kinda hope it is not like Mary Poppins. Or maybe it is that I wasn't expecting Mary Poppins to be quite, well- Mary Poppins. At times she seemed quite stern and forceful with the children then she would become a little more docile and in the chapter with Bert, she seemed a whole nother person..odd very odd
