The cartoonist Norman Thelwell's entertaining look at the comical world of children and the joys of parenthood.
The artist Norman Thelwell (1923–2004) was famous for his horse and pony cartoons, but his work was far more wide ranging. He focused his exceptional talent on many diverse subjects, with his witty and wry observations providing amusement and sharp social comment.
Brat Race, which was first published in 1977, takes a comical look at the world of children and the joys of parenthood. Thelwell chronicles youngsters’ behaviour with hilarious accuracy noting the mysteries, curiosities and characteristics, while providing humorous hints and advice for anxious parents and well-meaning relatives. From names, toys and birthday parties, to pets, health and happiness, all elements of childhood are depicted in the artist’s inimitable and entertaining style.

In 1952, Norman Thelwell (1923-2004) penned his first cartoon for the satirical British magazine Punch, renowned internationally for its wit, irreverence, and for publishing the world's best comic writers and poets. This led to a relationship that lasted for 25 years and over 1,000 cartoons, including 60 front covers. Thelwell was a master of sharp social comment and sheer zany humour, and his 34 books have sold millions of copies worldwide and have been translated into numerous languages (thelwell.org.uk).
