Richmal Crompton Lamburn - Born: 15th November 1890, Bury, Lancashire – Died: 11th January 1969, Farnborough Hospital, Bromley (78). For William, handkerchiefs were only useful for carrying frogs or blotting ink - and he owned several. So why did he need to steal the Bishop's handkerchief? The affair might have ended in disaster if the bishop hadn't thought that William had a 'bright spiritual smile'. In this book, the steely-willed six-year-old, Violet Elizabeth Bott, makes her first appearance and forces William to proclaim in public that he likes little girls. More adventures of the intrepid William: well-meaning but often misunderstood, he is 'Still - William'.
