Stephen Savage is the illustrator of the New York Times-bestselling picture book Polar Bear Night, also named a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book. He is also the creator of Little Tug, which School Library Journal called "petite but powerful," and Supertruck, which received six starred reviews. He lives in Brooklyn, New York with his wife and daughter.

"Savage (Supertruck) creates a sunny cast of vehicular characters, and his brief text is equally upbeat, punctuated by fun repetition ("presto!" is also used ironically to herald the cement mixer's mishaps), and a play on words involving mix-up and mixed up." Publishers Weekly, starred

"The book's thematic elements--trucks and food and mastery of a skill--are well-pitched to a very young audience."--Kirkus Reviews

"This tale's tight plot and winsome characters serve the dual purpose of exploring the world of vehicles and emphasizing the rewards of perseverance. A surefire storytime selection."--School Library Journal

"An imaginative picture book for young truck fans to enjoy."--Booklist
