The Little Ute That Could

Not every journey is easy.

When a baker’s delivery breaks down, a very important birthday cake still needs to reach a party on the other side of town. The road is long, the hill is steep, and help is hard to find—until one small blue ute decides to give it a go.

Inspired by the classic The Little Engine That Could, The Little Ute That Could is a modern Australian retelling about perseverance, kindness, and believing in yourself. Set against dusty roads and gum trees, this gentle picture book reminds children that you don’t have to be the biggest, newest, or fastest to succeed—you just have to think… I can.
