The kids were running in both directions. The nanny ran after one, then the other. Then a vase fell and broke. Soon after that she stormed out of the house yelling,”I QUIT.” The only nanny up for the job for the Banks’ children is, Mary Popping, the star in the movie “Mary Poppins” by P.L. Travers.
So which mode of literature is Mary Poppins you ask? Well its romance of course! It’s romance because romance is the only mode of literature that deals with fantasy. You may think that romance has to deal with love, but actually romance just needs fantasy. Mary Poppins knows just when to use magic.
Speaking of Mary Poppins, she’s the main character, obviously. She’s the perfect nanny for any child in need of one because she is nice but knows when to be strict. The children before Mary Poppins were misbehaving little children who would run away while out on walks. But the Mary comes and after a few days they’re much better behaved. Most of her items come from her carpet bag which is a major part of the story.
Her carpet bag is one of the main symbols of magic. Right away when Mary Poppins comes to the house she starts sprucing up the nursery the first thing she pulls out is a hat rack much taller than the bag, and the children are amazed! Another symbol of magic is her umbrella. She floats down from a cloud in the beginning and in the end the umbrella comes to life and she floats away with it.
So as you can see Mary Poppins is the right nanny for the Banks’ children. I know if she was hired as my nanny I would be overjoyed! Mary Poppins can make magic happen so who wouldn’t want her as their nanny.
Mary Poppins proved to be the best nanny for Jane and Michael and helped their parents learn to parent. The parents learned to balance work and play. She also helped turn the children into nice young adults.
