William the Good: Book 9

Description

Now with a fantastic redesigned cover to tie in with the brand-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. The road to disaster is paved with William’s good intentions.

Ethel’s behaviour has been rather odd – more so than is usual in a girl. But William, the Brown family’s moral guardian, is determined to ‘reform’ her – whatever the consequences . . .
