Wartime William is still up to mischief! William is always ready to offer his services to his country. But why is it that his enthusiastic contribution is so seldom appreciated? William is determined to do his bit, but unfortunately no one else thinks he'd make a hero . . . William at War by Richmal Compton is a selection of ten of William's most wonderful wartime stories in which William proves himself just as dangerous, unpredictable and downright troublesome as the Enemy! This much-loved children's classic features contemporary cover art by Michael Foreman, an introduction by actor and comedian John Sessions, along with the original inside illustrations by Thomas Henry - allowing a new generation to enjoy this unforgettable character. There is only one William. This tousle-headed, snub-nosed, hearty, loveable 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 Just William and Still William. Review: Five Stars - Excellent Review: Great condition - Lovely book. Like new.

Love it!
This is a book for all ages. It was written a long time ago for adults, but it is about a kid named William, so all ages can relate. The book is made up of short stories, so it would make good bedtime stories. But my husband likes to read a story any time he has to wait for 10-15 mins for anything. It makes you laugh, so it feels good to read them. When we have guests come stay, they like that they can read a few stories when it rains or at night before bed. A great book for any house!

) Very satisfying and very very funny. The last one also features the redoubtable Violet-Elizabeth ...
The stories are from 4 world war time books by Richmal Crompton. One is from before the war(William and The ARP) and one from after the allies won.( The Battle Of the Flowers.) Very satisfying and very very funny. The last one also features the redoubtable Violet-Elizabeth who proves she is faithful to the outlaws to the end!! I loved this collection.
