Mary Poppins put her hat straight at the Tobacconist’s Shop at the corner. It had one of those curious windows where there seem to be three of you instead of one. Mary Poppins sighed with pleasure, however, when she saw three of herself, each wearing a blue coat with silver buttons and a blue hat to match. She wished there had been a dozen of her or even thirty. The more Mary Poppins the better.

With that, to the surprise of Jane and Michael, she put hands down at her sides and without a laugh, without even the faintest glimmer of a smile, she shot up through the air and sat down beside Jane. “How many times, I should like to know”, she said snappily, “have I told you to take off your coat when you come into a hot room?” And she unbuttoned Jane’s coat and laid it neatly on the air beside the hat.

To this day Jane and Michael cannot be sure of what happened then. All they know for certain is that, as soon as Mr. Wigg had appealed to Mary Poppins, the table below began to wriggle on its legs. It was swaying dangerously, and then the table with cakes on the plates came soaring through the room, gave one graceful turn, and landed beside them so that Mr. Wigg was at its head.
