Overview

The #1 New York Times bestseller!

Big trucks may brag and roar, but small and steadfast wins the day in this cheerful story with timeless appeal.

On the Mighty Mountain Road Crew, the trucks come in one size: BIG. That is, until the little snowplow joins the crew. None of the other trucks think that the little snowplow can handle the big storms, but he knows that he can do it—and just to be sure, he trains hard, pushing loads of gravel, pulling blocks of concrete, and doing plow lifts to get ready. But when a blizzard arrives, will the little snowplow’s training be enough to clear the streets and handle unexpected trouble? Taking its place beside classics such as The Little Engine That Could and Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel, this tale of a plucky little plow will find a clear path to readers’ hearts.

About the Author

Lora Koehler is a children’s librarian. The Little Snowplow is her first picture book. She lives near the mountains, in Salt Lake City, Utah, where snowplows of all sizes come in handy.

Jake Parker is the illustrator of many books for young readers, as well as animated films and comic books. He also lives near the mountains, in Provo, Utah, and wishes the little snowplow would stop by his driveway every winter.


I grew up just south of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and have lived in California and now, in Salt Lake City, Utah. I also spent a year living in a van and tent, camping in wild places throughout the US.

In addition to writing, I’m a children’s librarian. Storytime is one of the most fun parts of my job. When I’m not at the library or writing, I enjoy hiking with my two dogs, biking, backpacking, skiing, and almost anything else that gets me outside.

Sometimes I write at my desk, from which I can see Grandeur Peak and Mount Olympus in the Wasatch Mountain range. I’ve written drafts of a few of my picture books while hiking mountain trails. I usually prefer to handwrite first drafts before revising things on my computer.

A Few Things You Didn’t Know About Me:

1. Of the twenty owl species that live in North America, I have seen eight in the wild. Only twelve to go. . . .

2. I spent four months as a volunteer in the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. I’ve hiked every mile but one on its many trails. I’m saving that last mile for later.

3. My favorite constellation is the Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters. See if you can find it tonight!
