After a banker's children lose their nanny due to her frustration with them, a change in the wind blows in a magical nanny who matches the chilren's qualifications, but not those of their very proper father. As Mary Poppins helps the children magically explore the world around them, their father grows increasingly disapproving of her methods, and he must eventually deal with his own distance from his children.

The adventure begins once upon a cold and blustery day in the Hundred Acre Wood when Pooh, Piglet, Tigger and Rabbit set out on a quest for winter--a favorite season they seem to have missed. And that leads to a wild search for the perfect ingredients for a festive Thanksgiving feast, and finally to Christmas, and a surprise visit from a special friend.

Charlotte the spider teaches Wilbur the pig, Templeton the rat and the other barnyard animals lessons on friendship, trust and love.

An extraordinary English nanny blows in on the East Wind with her parrot-headed umbrella and magic carpetbag and introduces her charges, Jane and Michael, to some delightful people and experiences.
