His first children's book - The Penguin Quartet - was released in 1996 and was the first collaboration of many with the illustrator - then girlfriend, now spouse - Ingela P Arrhenius. Together, they have published over 15 titles to date.

Besides writing books and screenplays for film and television, Peter enjoys playing guitar and making music with his band One Sad Horse and watching football from the comfort of his own couch.

Ingela has created patterns for fabrics, wallpaper and stationery, as well as packaging and home accessories.
