About this title

Synopsis

A delightful children's book, Peter's excellent writing makes the sights and sounds of Charleston come alive, says Readers' Favorite. In the morning we all rode, Mama's truck along the road, happily it wasn't far, to Charleston's posh peninsula. Fred the Snake and his adventurous friends are off on another unforgettable journey as they explore the historic streets of Charleston, South Carolina. After surviving traffic mishaps, learning the ropes at school, and reuniting with Jungle Jim and his jungle companions, Fred is ready to show his friends the sights and sounds of one of America's most charming cities. From the colorful homes of Rainbow Row and the bustling Charleston Market to the historic grounds of Fort Sumter, every stop brings new discoveries. Along the way, the gang enjoys bumpy carriage rides over cobblestone streets, explores fascinating sea life at the aquarium, and play their way through the children's museum.

About the Author

Peter Cotton grew up in Herefordshire, England, and studied medicine at Cambridge University. He went on to become one of the most influential gastroenterologists of his generation, pioneering endoscopy procedures that changed how doctors treat patients and authored the primary endoscopy textbook. Over six decades he trained hundreds of physicians and lectured in more than fifty countries, working at three university hospitals, The Middlesex in London, Duke in North Carolina, and finally the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, where he now lives on the eco-sensitive Dewees Island. In 2012 Peter published his memoirs, The Tunnel at the End of the Light, and has since published the sequel, Reflections: After Leaving the Tunnel. Alongside his medical career, Peter has written ten award winning books for young children about Fred the friendly snake, having fun in rhyme with Jungle Jim, Perdy, Jack, and several animal friends. The books have received many five-star reviews, with all ten titles recognized with a Mom's Choice Gold Award. Peter enjoys presenting Fred at schools and libraries, travels widely to teach, and reflects on his life and career in his blogs and published memoirs. More at petercottontalesdotcom.
