Critics Review
“William is as fresh and funny as ever.” Chris Riddell “Gloriously funny.” Sue Townsend, author of The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13 3⁄4
What’s funniest about William is when he’s thumbing his nose at authority * Independent *Crompton’s voice is dry, wry and ironic, in a style that you could say echoes Evelyn Waugh’s … The Just William stories are, above all, funny * Telegraph *
