Brown - better known as Just William. And, whether he's running wild
with his band of outlaws, working on his Grand Plan to run away, or
devising his next money-making scheme, there's one thing to be sure of .
. . William is always causing chaos! This timeless collection includes
the first three hilarious JUST WILLIAM stories, to delight children and
grown-ups alike! Featuring charming introductions by Sue Townsend,

Lancashire in 1890. The first story about William Brown appeared in Home
magazine in 1919, and the first collection of William stories was

books were published, the last one in 1970, after Richmal Crompton's
death.
