The poor Park Keeper . . . I'm sure getting caught up in the middle of a Midsummer's Eve ritual was not on the agenda for him . . . However, here we are 🤷🏾‍♀️😂

The best of all the Mary Poppins books, but you have to read all of them to understand this one.

This one was considerably shorter than the others and nothing to really go on about.

It's midsummer and Mary Poppins and the whole gang are in the Park, but no one is following the By-laws

More of the same sort of story as the rest really. A short short-story or long chapter of the usual formula

I know I didn't enjoy this one as much because it was an audiobook, but I think I also didn't like that it was one big story instead of several shorter anecdotes.

Does my mind deceive me, or is there a subtle reference to Mary Poppins’ actually being the Queen of the South? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_of_Sheba

A lesser book written later. There isn't much here. It kind of feels like an attempt a victory lap. Or milking a previous victory. Kind of like a direct-to-video Disney animated sequel. There's a bunch of words and names of characters. But there is no story. And everything seems garbled and off. Readable but only just.
