My name is Jens Peter but I am often called JP. Some of my published work is “Pelle No-Tail’s Birthday”, “Pelle No-Tail Plays Hide and Seek” and “Turn That Frown Upside Down Little Spider”.
I grew up near Stockholm in the seventies and eighties. I was very interested in skateboarding and the hip-hop culture as a young teenager and even started a rap group in high school, but later decided to pursue an academic education instead. At the University of Madrid and Stockholm, I studied pedagogy, psychology, children culture and took a degree in Interactive Telecommunications. I have since then mainly worked for the UN with interactive media for children. Today I live in Brooklyn with my wife and our two daughters.
