Product Information

Mary says the cow had a content and routine life and was happy with this, but one night a star fell from the sky onto her horn and she couldn’t stop dancing and after seven days of dancing she decided to go to the King for advice, he failed to get the star from her horn so suggested she jump over the moon, she did this and the star fell off and her dancing stopped. This time, they visit her cousin Fred Twigley, befriend a statue that has come to life, go riding on peppermint horses, and experience a garden party under the sea. And yet there is always that touch of sadness, that clear-eyed unflinching awareness that is somehow so much more true of childhood than any trite sentimentality. How many times will the children sneak out at night to find some congregation of magical people and/or creatures in the park or elsewhere? The Red Cow: A self-described 'model cow' whom Mary Poppins remembers as a good friend of her mother.

This fourth book contains six adventures of the Banks children with Mary Poppins during their outings in the park along Cherry Tree Lane. She went to Mary’s mother for advice who told her that many stars fall out of the sky every night but are unlikely to fall in the exact same place so the cow must go and look for another star, which is what she is doing when the children see her looking into gardens.
