Up the Garden Path by Norman Thelwell

The perfect gift for any gardener who has experienced overbearing neighbours, the pains of building a water feature, unruly indoor plants, and the battle to dig the lawnmower out from the shed. Norman Thelwell was a keen observer of the foibles of the British at work and play. He is best known for his small, round and hairy ponies and their small, equally round little girl owners.
'Fans of Norman Thelwell's barrel-shaped hairy ponies rejoice: publisher Allison & Busby is reissuing four tongue-in-cheek guides to rural life from the cartoonist's archive' Country Life Magazine 'These quirky cartoon books [offer] a trip down memory lane for Thelwell's long-established fans and a breath of fresh air for a new generation of outdoor pursuit lovers' Lancashire Evening Post 'This collection of cartoons addresses the perennial problems of weeds and neighbourly disputes.. it is fun to see how far we have come from a world of chaps in sleeveless pullovers and ties pushing cumbersome hand lawnmovers' The Sunday Times
Norman Thelwell contributed more than 1,600 cartoons to Punch magazine, the Sunday Express and Tatler. Thelwell's cartoons remain a popular and wry look at British life. He was particularly well-known for his cartoons on horse riding, fishing, sailing, motoring and country pursuits and was one of the founder members of the British Cartoonists' Association.
