Had to look this one up. Interesting. Perhaps a model for America’s own Cartman in South Park.

Some of the most exquisite literary creations date to the fag end of the Victorian era into the Edwardian and Georgian era

Billy Bunter

The William books — *priceless

Biggles series — *priceless

Wodehouse’s entire collection of 80 books - whether Mulliners’ Tales or Lord Dynamite or Blanding’s castle or jeeves and Wooster or the Drones or even better (my favourite), the early years - the cricket/school series (Mike, Mik & Psmith, the Prefect’s uncle etc.)

Also notable: the McAuslan and the Flashman series by George McDonald Fraser - not quite Georgian, but lovely enough.
