More adventures of that irrepressible schoolboy, William Brown. Perpetually scruffy and mischievous, he is a lovable scamp whose pranks usually end in disaster. He is joined by his friends Ginger, Douglas and Henry, and the angelic thorn-in-his-side, the lisping Violet Elizabeth Bott.

This tape must be almost worn out the number of times our son, 8, has listened to it. Just William is beautifully read by Martin Jarvis. He evokes memories of reading of the story myself but more importantly has enthused our son into reading the books for himself. William's antics appeal to a boy's sense of adventure and mischief.

Martin Jarvis manages to capture the character of the eponymous William perfectly. All the voices he gives the characters are, I'm sure, just as Richmal Crompton intended them.
Having read all the 'Just William' books as a child, even now I sometimes re-read them, it is wonderful to be able to listen to them reproduced so faithfully.
Superb. More please.

Sometimes when you read a story or put a video on for the kids for the umpteenth time you try and force yourself to remember what a blessing that it is and how lucky that you are to be a parent.
When you put on this "wizard bang" classic, as dated and stale as a six week old french stick, you think that it is a blessing.
Jarvis breathes life into these dated stories with their silly plots and ridiculous language and makes them vital and alive. All the family enjoy a long drive when these tapes are playing.

I don't know if my nine year old daughter will be telling her school mates how much she likes them though, but in the privacy of the car she loves it. My six year old daughter, less self conscious, is an open fan.
Oh I say old boy, they really are splendid.
