Follow them through slick roads and swirling drifts in this sweet, rhyming book by Deborah Bruss and <i>New York Times</i> bestselling illustrators Lou Fancher and Steve Johnson.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The text is written in the second person, speaking to the driver and the snowplow and encouraging them on through the night. The illustrations are beautifully made with multiple media, creating different textures that both pop and add depth. Strong lines describe the town, vehicles, and people, but the snow is made to look soft and fluffy. Delicate and detailed snowflakes are stamped over the images to create the effect of snow falling. <b>This book shines light on a lesser-known occupation and gives recognition to the hard work done to keep our roads clear and safe in the snow...A great addition to any big-machines collection.</b> -- <i>Kirkus</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><i>New York Times</i> bestselling illustrators <b>Steve Johnson</b> and <b>Lou Fancher</b> have collaborated on over 45 picture books together.
