Just William

Richmal Crompton was a popular English writer best known for a series of novels beginning with ‘Just William’. They have since been turned into popular plays and even films.

Just William is the first book of hilarious short stories about 11-year-old William Brown -- eternally scruffy and frowning. William's family, his elder sister Ethel and brother Robert, placid mother and stern father, and never-ending supply of elderly aunts, cannot understand him. William just likes DOING things, that's all! It's not his fault he likes DOING things, is it?
