Peter CheongBooks have always been a vital part of Peter’s life. Growing up on Roald Dahl and having adventures with Calvin and Hobbes, Peter was heavily influenced by the way Quentin Blake and Bill Watterson brought stories to life. After spending several years in the Australian Army, Peter finally decided to pursue his dream of a career in books. Peter Cheong is the illustrator of I’m a Hero Too, Nothing Alike and the Pow Pow Pig series. Every Night at Midnight is his first book as both author and illustrator. Peter unfortunately cannot turn into a wolf himself but is still trying. Peter lives in Perth (Whadjuk Region), Western Australia, with his very understanding wife and son and less understanding cat. He is currently working on his second author/illustrated book, Where We Can Hear the Giants Sing, which will be released in the American Fall of 2024. |
