Cotton, Peter B.: - Peter Cotton is a retired physician living on Dewees Island in South Carolina. He grew up in England where the first story was conceived long ago as a bedtime tale for his then young children, Andrew and Nicola, about how (not) to cross the road. When they had their kids, they asked what happened to "Fred-Fred."Peter teamed up with awesome illustrator, Bonnie Lemaire, and published When Fred the Snake got Squished and Mended. Together they already have nine popular award-winning books, having fun in rhyme with Jungle Jim, Perdy and Jack, and several animal friends. They go to school, welcome Jungle Jim, tour Charleston, try camping, visit the beach, and explore the sights of the USA in three books: East, Central, and West.The books have received many 5-star reviews and several awards, including five Mom's Choice gold awards. Reviewers have mentioned Lewis Carroll, Dr. Seuss, Hilaire Belloc, and Roald Dahl.Peter enjoys presenting Fred at schools and libraries. When not busy with Fred's adventures, Peter travels widely to lecture, to enjoy his family, and to play golf. He reflects on life, and on his career as a Professor of Gastroenterology, in his blogs, and in his published memoirs The Tunnel at the End of the Light.Peter says he was not named after a rabbit.
