My name is Peter Cotton (not named after a rabbit). I wrote my first story about Fred “When Fred the Snake got Squished and Mended” a very long time ago to teach my children to be careful crossing the road. There are now five more books, all in rhyming verse and beautifully illustrated by Bonnie Lemaire. My grandkids like them and I hope you may also.
