I listened to this after seeing "Saving Mr. Banks" and found it delightful. The Disney movie was one of our favorites when my sons were young, and I was astonished to learn that almost all of the features in the movie (everyone jumping into Bert's chalk drawings, Mary sliding UP the stair bannister, the bird lady feeding pigeons near the church) came from Travers' original book. The narrator of the audio edition is British and does an excellent job. You'll love it.
