Besides being an amazing artist with a lovely, kind, and quirky, kid-like sense of humor, he speaks three languages and manages a most-gorgeous garden at his home on the Hudson River in New York. Oh, and he just happens to be a pediatrician with a super-busy medical practice. Why so busy, you ask? Because kids love-love-love going to see Dr. Gergely. He makes each visit so much fun that kids don't realize they've had a doctor's visit. Pete's watercolors have appeared in many galleries in and around New York City, and he has illustrated several books, including \u003cem\u003eThe Way We Garden Now\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Itasca Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54526347968787,"sku":"9781643437484","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/3521\/2563\/files\/img_proxy_bbb0eff5-97a2-488d-b735-6532b2606f44.jpg?v=1785851401","url":"https:\/\/danuc.net\/products\/night-night-body","provider":"Danu's Wardrobe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
