Watch out William's about!

Some words to not apply to William Brown: sweet, charming, 'dear little boy' . . . That sounds more like Georgie Murdoch, who is so sickly sweet that William is determined to turn him into a wild, muddy, noisy outlaw like himself . . .

In Richmal Crompton's William the Outlaw, William Brown is back in a collection of ten Just William stories with an introduction by Horrid Henry author Francesca Simon, appealing contemporary cover art by Sara Ogilvie, along with the original inside illustrations by Thomas Henry.

There is only one William. This tousle-headed, snub-nosed, hearty, lovable imp of mischief has been harassing his unfortunate family and delighting his hundreds of thousands of admirers since 1922.

Enjoy more of William's adventures in William the Good and William the Bad.
