In this collection of six full-length Christmas stories we encounter the irrepressible William Brown as an unlikely carol-singer, a pantomime-bear, Arab chief and conjurer. And between being mistaken for a Martian and becoming a burglar, William provides his family, friends (and many assorted aunts) with a Christmas they'll never forget. Neither will you...As William himself would say, 'Happy list'nin'!'
