NormanThelwell's best-loved characters are back in a special edition of a timelessfavorite. Inthe early 1950s, and quite to his surprise, artist Norman Thelwell becamepopular for his equestrian-themed cartoons. In an effort to satisfy a devotedand growing international following, Thelwell developed a cartoon stripabout a particular horse-crazy young lady and her wicked pony called "Penelopeand Kipper." This became a book called Penelope, first published in 1972 andnow found bound with other favorites in the popular collection PonyPanorama. Seventeen years later, a second series of adventures found its way toprint in Penelope Rides Again. Thelwell's plucky, pint-sized equestrianwas back in the saddle (or, more frequently, out of it) as she braved bothshowgrounds and countryside with the still-devilish Kipper.Many years have passed since Penelope Rides Again was last widely available inprint. But now the feisty Penelope and Kipper are back in this special 100thAnniversary Edition in honor of Norman Thelwell's Centenary. WithPenelope's help, readers of all ages will learn to pick themselves up after afall, no matter how hard...and laugh about it.
