oh my, I haven't laughed so hard in a while. (not while reading, I mean) the reader is great (you can catch him stifling a giggle from time Rio time). this would new a great book to listen to with your kids on a road trip! but I listened all by myself and thoroughly enjoyed it!

This book has made me laugh more than any other before, whether in printed form or as an audiobook. Richmal Crompton, the author, is for me a new discovery. The same to be said of David Wales, the reader, as a reader of humorous stories. He was just GREAT! Thank you for this sweet and wholesome adventure. This is one of those books to which I wish it would be possible to give more than the allowed five stars.

Just William is my favourite LibriVox story and it is so funny that’s why I have listened to it 1,000 times I also wish it was on Netflix but sadly it’s not on Netflix and I wish there were more characters of it.From Indra.

Cleverly funny and made even funnier by the narration of Mr. Wales. A great performer at all times, he truly shines reading this kind of humor (dry humor? sardonic? I just know it's funny)

Richmal crompton (a woman by the way) perfectly understands the mind of a young boy and describes his adventures beautifully. Brilliantly read by david Wales as with all his readings I have encountered
Nostalgia at its best.

I first read these books when I was in single figures. It was a wonderful trip down memory lane. A round of applause to the reader.
Lighthearted, funny. Well read.

Very sweet stories about a rambunctious boy. A little like "Dennis The Menace." Quite entertaining. Very well read!
