The Talking Snowman is an addition to the Judy Bolton Series of mystery stories. The original 38 volume series was written by Margaret Sutton. The Talking Snowman was written by Sutton and author Linda Joy Singleton.
In 1997, three decades after the last Judy Bolton title was issued by Grosset & Dunlap, Singleton completed a book that series creator Margaret Sutton had begun writing in 1980. Once the first draft was finished, Singleton submitted it to Sutton for revisions, and the book that emerged from their collaboration carries the name of both co-authors. Chronologically, The Talking Snowman takes place during the Christmas season between the events described in volume 3 and volume 4, and thus is known to collectors as "volume 3.5".
