A very sweet book, and the illustrations in this edition were lovely. I don't remember if I've ever read the book, though I'm familiar with the movie and the musical. I enjoyed several of the stories that were not included in either the movie or the musical. It was also interesting to read, now knowing the PL Travers was not thrilled with the Disney adaptation.
