Illustrated by
Jake Parker.
A little snowplow gets no respect from the other trucks: "'Ha!' said the dump truck. 'You've never even seen snow!'" But when a blizzard hits, it's the little snowplow to the rescue. Koehler's text features kid-pleasing vehicle sound effects. In Parker's cartoony illustrations, the trucks' facial expressions say it all: the big trucks' contempt and eventual gratitude, our hero's determination and triumph.
