About the Author

British-born, retired Professor of Medicine in Charleston, SC, widely traveled and author of many medical books. He wrote the first story about Fred the snake getting squished (and mended) when his kids were young, to teach them how (not) to cross the road. When they had their own children, they asked "what happened to Fred-Fred" (so-called because he was in two pieces initially). So, Peter dusted it off and found a publisher and a wonderful illustrator (Canadian Bonnie Lemaire). It seemed popular and fun, so there are now 9 books about the adventures of Fred the friendly snake. And friends. After recovering from his squishing, Fred has gone to school, welcomed Jungle Jim and other animals, explored Charleston, enjoyed the beach and taken his friends camping. Books 7, 8 and 9 have Fred and friends exploring the cities and sights of USA. The Midwest book review said "Move over for Fred-Fred, Lewis Carroll”. Peter said he was not named after a rabbit.

Bonnie Lemaire is a graduate of Ontario College of Art's Communication and Design program, specializing in medical illustration. Her first position as artist/designer was with Ganz and Brothers Canada, designing figurines and teddy bears! Bonnie works in her home studio located in a small Hamlet in Northern Ontario, Canada, surrounded by her loving family and furry friend Crowquill the studio cat. Bonnie's eccentric creations within fantastical stories have brought smiles to small faces and delight to her readers all over the world.
