Now as famous on radio and audio as they are in print, the adventures of that irrepressible and ageless schoolboy William Brown have been delighting both young and old for decades. Perpetually scruffy, mud-stained, and mischievous, he is a lovable scamp whose pranks usually end in disaster, for his harassed elders at least. With friends Ginger, Douglas, and Henry (The Outlaws), and the angelic, lisping, thorn-in-his-side Violet Elizabeth Bott, William has rightly joined the literary, and radio, immortals.
This volume of Just William features the following stories:

"Don't be fooled into thinking the William series are just for children. If you were a boy (or tom boy) always on adventures whilst feeling your family & people in general were preventing said such adventures then these stories will take you straight back to your youth. Todays playstation generation could learn a lot from William brown & he'd enjoy teaching them so long as he was in charge & until he moved on to his next project." — Will (5 out of 5 stars)

" i love these books so much, they are so hilarious! And always keep me laughing. "
" Fantastic book highly entertaining at any age. "
" If my two boys had to go and play in shirt, tie and hat all day they'd be accused of being 'naughty' every time they trashed their clothes too. Such a different time, but this precocious child gives a little insight into the lack of thought and consequences that is a boys mind - and how much they need to just get out and PLAY. Perhaps not that much has changed .... Not giving it to my boys to read tho!!! "
" Rachel sent me a CD with a bunch of Just William stories on it, and they were so much fun to listen to! "
" Re-read - just as goos as when I was a kid! "
" The funniest book I ever read as a child, William was and still is brilliant and hilarious, Horrid Henry has nothing on 'Willy dear.' "
" Very charming book. I would have liked William as a best friend. So funny, smart, and naive. "
" Not the Antichrist, though I suspect that Violet Elizabeth Bott has her doubts. "
" Loved this as a child and can read these Richmal Crompton books again and again as an adult and enjoy them all over. "
" Fun books from childhood that are funnier as an adult. (Free on Kindle!) "
" Awesome - according to my 6 year old! "
" I love Richmal Crompton. I'm sending my copies as a loaner to my nephew Sammy. "
" Charming and funny, like a British Tom Sawyer. "
" A trip down memory lane. Great fun. "
" As brilliant as ever. I'm going to have to scoop a few more of these off the bookshelf when I go home to my folks. "
" Some of my favourite books. I wanted to ne William when I was a boy and they still take me back to childhood. Crompton was a writer of genius, though I still prefer the first dozen or so books as the later ones are not of the same quality. "
" Brilliant - laugh out loud funny. Although a bit dated with maids and gardeners the stories are so funny. William always manages to triumph in the end. "
" i'd just like to say that i loved william and the outlaws so much that the better part of my childhood was spent in trying to be like him, but needless to say i failed miserably( long sigh). "
" I love William--he's such a grubby, earnest, scowling, rebellious child, with such a heavy hand on the sarcasm. These books are a hugely entertaining window into middle-class English family life in the twenties. "
" I loved the way that William got himself into these situations. I read a little bit every night and couldn't wait to be able to find out what happened next. "
