Description
William is always in trouble but sometimes it really isn't his fault. It was Ginger who showed him the book about Robin Hood, and it was Violet Elizabeth Bott's idea to steal from the rich and give to the poor. Unfortunately the only rich person they know is Violet's father, so William's latest plan to right the world's wrongs is sure to lead to catastrophe . . . In William the Conqueror everyone's favourite trouble-maker, William Brown, is back in a collection of 14 Just William stories - now with a brand-new cover look illustrated by Joe Berger. 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. Now with a brand new cover look.
