Who was Mary Poppins by profession? Let's remember
From the earliest childhood we learn the world throughbooks that mother reads to us. At first we remember only the favorite heroes: Karlsson, Mowgli, Rapunzel. Becoming more mature, we learn that Carlson was "born" in Sweden, which means that people with difficult-to-pronounce surnames like meatballs and buns. Mowgli is a hot, humid India, it has jungles and lost cities. And there is also the country of England, in which there are often fogs, and people are neat, stiff, externally cold, but full of mysteries and mischief, like our favorite heroine of the same name, Pamela Travers, Mary Poppins. Photo actress Natalia Andreichenko, who performed this role in the Soviet adaptation of the classic English book, stands before her eyes, you should hear the name of this famous character.
Profession Mary Poppins
The peculiarity of this story is that,unlike the characters of most fairy tales, the heroine of this - not a princess, not a sorceress, not a gin from a bottle. On the contrary, in appearance - this is the most ordinary man, who is engaged in the most commonplace business. After all, who was Mary Poppins by profession? A simple nanny, also with the smallest salary. Simple, but not quite, or rather, quite difficult. In the course of reading a series of books about Mary Poppins it turns out that she can fly, conjure, understand the language of animals and babies.
The storyline of Mary Poppins
The storyline of this workquite simply: a new nanny comes to the Banks family living in London on Cherry Street. More precisely, arrives, holding the handle of the open umbrella, driven by the north wind. In her care are two older children - Jane and Michael, and twin babies John and Barbara. (In the Soviet film, two children - Jane and Michael.) In the last books of the series appears the fifth child - the little Anabel. The new nanny dexterously manages with this whole "company", plus it is kept under the control of their parents, servants and in general the entire Cherry Street. Even the obstinate park guard finally obeys her.
Children adore their nanny, despite her external severity, because they know that every day spent in her community will bring new amazing adventures.
And no matter who the profession was Mary Poppins. Her dignity, intelligence, sense of justice and measure would be envied by many royal cats, let alone the kings themselves and their courtiers ...
