: Now with a fantastic redesigned cover to tie in with the new Just William BBC television series! "I din' take it," William said. "Ethel took it. She - she sort of can't help herself. I always," he added virtuously, "try'n put back the things she's took." It all started with a rare event: William Brown read a book. And now he feels inspired to save his sister from a life of crime
: 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 . . .
: Inspired by the tales of Robin Hood, the Outlaws have come up with a new scheme for redistributing the treasures of the rich to the very poor. But this inevitably leads William into battle with the grown-up world, with typically disastrous consequences.
