Sadly, people reading older versions of Mary Poppins books also have to be warned about the racial language. However, the author says that she is sure that the situation is only temporary and that people will celebrate it once again after the war is over. A note at the beginning explains what Guy Fawkes Day is, and it also mentions that people haven’t celebrated it since the war began. Like other Mary Poppins books, each chapter is its own short story, and the first one takes places on Guy Fawkes Day. This Mary Poppins book was written during World War II, and the author has an acknowledgement in the first chapter that things have changed because of the war.
