An attachment to a conventional snow shovel functions as an auxiliary handle and as a connector to a second snow shovel. When oriented substantially perpendicular to the shovel blade, the attachment functions as an auxiliary handle. The attachment connects to the shovel near the intersection of 1) the blade and neck and 2) the neck and handle. In this embodiment, the auxiliary handle functions as a cradle in which to rotate the shovel to dump snow more easily. The attachment may also be used to combine two shovels to form a plow. The attachment connects to a first shovel at the same two points as in the first configuration. In the same way, another attachment connects to the neck of a second shovel. The two attachments connect to each other at a third attachment point along the body of the attachments, creating a plow formed by the adjacent shovel blades.
