He's—he's more like a nightmare than a boy. Whether he's occupying a bear suit that's slightly too small for him, cloaked in mystery as a fortune teller, or attired in the flowing robes of a Fairy Queen, William is unmistakably himself: trouble in human form. Only Great-Aunt Jane manages to take William on at his own game—and win! There is only one William. This tousle-headed, snub-nosed, hearty, loveable imp of mischief has been harassing his unfortunate family and delighting his hundreds of thousands of admirers since 1922. Now with a brand-new cover look.
