I did read some of the books as well, and though I enjoyed them I do have to point out that the Mary in the books is not the same as the Mary in the movie. She isn't as kind and funny in the books, and she is decidedly "odder" as well. Still, the books are worth reading on their own merit if you can keep from comparing them to the movie. :)Heather J. @ TLC Book Tourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474181812740579350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-46604802826597741302009-11-11T01:40:58.107-06:002009-11-11T01:40:58.107-06:00I also loved Mary Poppins...I mean who wouldn'...I also loved Mary Poppins...I mean who wouldn't?!
