Bridges - Tales Publishing Releases First Children’s Book, “Snowy The Cooler Snowman”

Bridges and Tales

New York City, New York Dec 5, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Bridges & Tales Publishing today announced the release of its first childrens book, Snowy The Cooler Snowman. Authored by veteran early childhood educator Sandra Murtha-Haggerty and illustrated by artist Sara Halvorsen, Snowy The Cooler Snowman, a story told in rhyme, brings entertainment and speech therapeutics together in a charming story about friendship, imagination, determination, and the joy of turning a lofty idea into reality.

"The idea for this book has been a long time coming, said Murtha-Haggerty today. Working as a Speech Pathologist with young children for over 25 years has afforded me the opportunity to read many books. Ive also seen technology begin to infringe upon and take time away from book reading, which is such an important part of early childhood learning, particularly for kids who have speech development challenges. With repetition being a critical component of speech development, I wanted to create a character and story that both children and adults would enjoy reading over and over again. And, of course, I hope theyll look forward to future Snowy adventures to come."

Snowy The Cooler Snowman is beautifully illustrated in rich color and detail by artist Sara Halvorsen, whose artistic vision gave Snowy a unique snowman appearance.

Halvorsen was animated today as she commented on her work, saying, "When Sandra first told me about Snowy, I was excited for the opportunity to create a face to match his sweet personality and to differentiate him from other snowman characters hence, the overly long hat and scarf. I loved bringing Snowy and his unique, caring group of friends to life in this story, which is so much fun to read.

What Makes Snowy The Cooler Snowman Special

Easy-to-read rhymes that children enjoy reading again and again.
Fun learning about the seasons through Snowys adventures.
Positive message about kindness, teamwork, and caring for friends.
Bright, colorful illustrations that bring each season to life.
