New Children's Book Captures the Magic of the Holiday Season

Alpine, Utah (PRWEB) November 29, 2007 -- The Snowman Who Was Cold by Josh Williamson is the moving tale of an unhappy snowman and the precocious young elf who is determined to help him.

In The Snowman Who Was Cold, an elf child named Nissa and her friends create a snowman, but Nissa soon realizes this snowman is different than most. He can talk, and he is miserably cold. Thus, Nissa sets out to find a way to warm up her new friend, but despite all her efforts, he is still dissatisfied. Before long Nissa's father joins in, attempting to help the poor fellow, but to no avail. Ultimately, with the help of her mother, Nissa discovers that it is the love and closeness of family that warms the snowman's heart.

Parents will praise this soon-to-be childhood favorite. Little Nissa sets a fantastic example for children, demonstrating how to problem solve, think outside the box, persevere in spite of challenges, accept limitations, ask for help, and help those in need. Beautifully illustrated and visually stimulating, this charming story also expresses the importance of having friends and family nearby.

Destined to be a holiday classic, The Snowman Who Was Cold will be cherished by children and adults of all ages.
