Bernice Barberstock is 86 years old and lives in Kingston, Ontario. Jimmy and the Snowman is her first book. When Bernice's daughter was young, like a lot of children, she loved bedtime stories, not traditional stories but tales made up by her mom. Bernice became a skillful storyteller to please her daughter. Every night she would offer up different stories to her daughter and one night after the first snow fall of the season, she found inspiration for Jimmy and the Snowman. The story became a favourite for her daughter and was requested night after night.
Bernice Barberstock, an 86-year-old Kingston resident, penned her debut book, "Jimmy and the Snowman." Inspired by her daughter's love for bedtime stories, Bernice crafted imaginative tales, including this beloved winter adventure. Originally shared orally, the story gained popularity and was eventually transformed into a picture book to surprise and delight its original audience. Suzanne, an illustrator hailing from the Georgian Bay area, has a wealth of experience working with children as an Educational Assistant. Her passion for storytelling is evident in her previous works, including the "Cuddles" series and "Because of the Virus." She is honored to bring Bernice's heartwarming tale to life with her illustrations in "Jimmy and the Snowman."
