Mary Poppins Comes Back (Puffin Books) - Softcover
Pulled down from the clouds at the end of a kite string, Mary Poppins is back. In Mary's care, the Banks children meet the King of the Castle and the Dirty Rascal, visit the upside-down world of Mr. Turvy and his bride, Miss Topsy, and spend a breathless afternoon above the park, dangling from a clutch of balloons.

Review:
"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

On sailed the curious figure, its feet neatly clearing the tops of the trees. Jane and Michael could see the face now, and the well-known features – coal-black hair, bright blue eyes and nose turned upwards like the nose of a Dutch doll. The figure drifted down between the lime trees and alighted primly upon the grass. "Mary Poppins, Mary Poppins!" they cried, and flung themselves upon her.
'This is the second book about Mary Poppins.'
"Absolutely alive, and aglint with magic."
Walter de la Mare
"Like all great children's classics, 'Mary Poppins' is frightening and sad as well as magic and very funny."
