PETER BROWN Studio

Peter Brown is an author and illustrator of children’s books. His titles include New York Times bestsellers like The Wild Robot, The Curious Garden, Children Make Terrible Pets, and Mr. Tiger Goes Wild. Peter received a Caldecott Honor for his illustrations in the picture book Creepy Carrots!

Here’s what’s new…

My next book is a retelling of The Wild Robot in picture book form entitled The Wild Robot On The Island, which hits bookstores on June 24, 2025. In this book, readers will get to see Roz becoming the Wild Robot in big, colorful, detailed illustrations. My hope is that fans of the Wild Robot novels will enjoy seeing Roz in a whole new way, and I also hope this book can introduce younger readers to the world of The Wild Robot before they move on to the novels.

To promote The Wild Robot On The Island I’ll be touring around the U.S. in June and November doing in-person book events, and I’ll also have a book tour of the U.K. in October. Check back soon for all the event details!
