A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

Praise for the Mary Poppins series: "When Mary Poppins is about, her young charges can never tell where the real world merges into make-believe. Neither can the reader, and that is one of the hallmarks of good fantasy."--The New York Times
 
"There is an extraordinary charm about these books . . . They are whimsical, sentimental [and] also funny, imaginative, poetical and genuinely creative."--The New York Evening Post "Like all great children's classics, Mary Poppins is frightening and sad as well as magic and very funny" Observer  "Absolutely alive, and aglint with magic" Walter de la Mare  "Mary Poppins is the Good Fairy, whom we are all seeking" Times Literary Supplement  "They are, outside of the work of Lewis Carroll, Tolkien, and T. H. White, the most distinguished poetic literature ever written for children. (The first book, “Mary Poppins,” is terrific, but “Mary Poppins Comes Back” and “Mary Poppins in the Park” are even better.)" – Adam Gopnik, The New Yorker
