Whe...I've only ever read one Just William book. When I was about 10, someone gave me it and I thanked them even though it really didn't appeal to me. Eventually though I read it (out of curiosity partly, because at least two family members kept saying I was like Just William - thinking about it now, I don't think that was a compliment) and loved it - can't remember the title but William decided to adopt an orphan for some reason and made a sign which said something like 'Wanted - an orphan/awfun'.<br /><br />(Just googled it and found it it was called William The Bad.

The books featured in this post say 38, so that's what I've gone with. And believe it or not, there have been several films based on the books, as well as a few TV series. Dennis Waterman (Minder) played William in one of them.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-10301208811443192862017-11-12T14:14:01.434+00:002017-11-12T14:14:01.434+00:00I never knew there were 38...
