Biography[]
Perfect Peter is Horrid Henry's little brother. Peter appears to be a perfect and angelic child to the eyes of his parents in contrast to his bratty and rude brother. However, he is a wolf in a sheep's clothing, because Peter is shown to be selfish and spoiled by his parents with an ego almost as big as Henry's. While keeping this facade, Peter's goals include attempting to bring his brother into trouble even for minor things such as being called a "worm" or told to get "out of my way".
In many people's eyes like his parents, Peter's image is that of a content, adorable, sweet-natured child that he believes himself to be. His favorite things include vegetables, fruit, physical exercise, cleanliness, school, classical music, and books - these factors make people always think the best of him. However, he is in fact another character entirely; the series reveals him as a condescending and cowardly brat who has a selfish streak for praise and is arrogantly egotistical about it. He is used to getting his own way, and to getting away with everything that he and his brother both do. He also takes an almost sadistic joy in exposing his brother's activities to his parents because it means he gets praised.
He also has a weakness that is frequently spurring his doings throughout the franchise: he adores being the center of attention and becomes intensely furious when this is denied from him, no matter how much he doesn't deserve it. This makes him commit acts that make him just as bad as his brother Henry. He also has an incessant habit of flaunting the smallest things he has done to his parents with the hope of receiving praise - the smallest things, from getting up in the morning to laying the table to polishing his shoes and even "being a normal child".
Personality[]
Peter is extremely arrogant, egotistical, manipulative, selfish, cowardly, spiteful, and (according to Henry) a crybaby as he always tells on Henry for the smallest of things. One time he even told on Henry for not being horrid to him which even Henry's mum said was "the silliest thing she has ever heard". He hates it whenever something good happens to Henry and always does something to ruin it out of spite such as when Henry sold his biscuits (even if mum made them for him it was so he would unknowingly eat carrots making her motive selfish rather then wanting Henry to have nice biscuits so this was justified) which caused Henry's business to be ruined when Peter decided to sell the recipe. He has some on and off moments at times where he works with Henry but the two always go back to being rivals afterwards.

Trivia[]
- Despite Peter being called “Perfect Peter”, describing him as a good and perfect person, he is described as a villain as well, as his selfish, arrogant, snobby, immature and cowardly personality causes a run down on him, as sometimes he tries to be horrid like Henry, but fails.
- This is likely meant to be name given by Henry sarcastically.
