WILLIAM AGAIN

The William stories are classics that were first written in the 1920s, but age has only made them better. William is the youngest in his family and a real pain, but he's lots of fun--even when things go wrong for him, they manage to go right. He wants to be in a play, so he writes a play; he visits his dying aunt, and his spunk speeds her recovery; he leads a woman to believe that he's on his own because his parents drink. Martin Jarvis has done more than 150 William stories for the BBC, and he's perfect as the long-suffering family, a snobbish neighbor, and, best of all, William and his cronies.
