Percival William Williams—better known as Wee Willie Winkie—may only be six years old, but he carries the heart of a soldier. Raised among British officers on the rugged Indian frontier, Winkie lives by military discipline, loyalty, and fierce pride in his father’s regiment. When he discovers that a young woman he admires has ridden beyond the safe boundaries of the cantonment, the little boy does the unthinkable: he breaks arrest and rides into danger to protect her.

The six-year-old got his nickname from the famous nursery tale, but he was to become both child tyrant and profound hero. A tale from British India and the pen of lauded author Rudyard Kipling. You will likely see yourself or someone you know in Wee Willie Winkie, and you may find yourself applauding the courage that can be found in strong-willed children.
