I completely love all the William books, and wondered how they would translate to audio. William is, after all, a deeply special character and the wrong reading voice could be catastrophic...
I needn't have worried: Martin Jarvis is the PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT choice. He manages to give each of the characters a distinct voice and even manages to ENHANCE their characters. These audio CDs are a delight - I love to listen to them when I'm in the car and have even converted several passengers - children and adults alike - to the joys of Richmal Crompton's world of William.
These recordings are a complete joy - if you love William, you'll love these, I promise.
