About the book: (from the dust jacket)
Neat and prim, wearing a new hat trimmed with a crimson tulip, the incomparable Mary Poppins is here once more to delight her hosts of admirers, young and old, everywhere. Not that this is a fourth visit; she cannot forever arrive and depart. And besides it should be remembered that three is a lucky number! But not all of Mary Poppins adventures during her three previous visits to the Banks family in Cherry Tree Lane were recorded in Mary Poppins, Mary Poppins Comes Back, and Mary Poppins Opens the Door So, happily, there are new adventures to be shared with that irrepressible and world-famous figure

Whether it is 2 sleepy summer’s day or a wild and windswept Halloween night, Michael and Jane, the Twins and baby Annabel and each and every reader once more lead an enchanted life with Mary Poppins where even the most ordinary event becomes an extraordinary occurrence. P. L. Travers’ unsurpassed imagination and magical pen are again combined in a book which will be loved and laughed over for many years to come, and in the same spontaneous mood Mary Shepard has contributed many delightful line drawings.
