Rosie Revere, Engineer

New York Times Bestseller

Rosie may seem quiet during the day, but at night sheâ€™s a brilliant inventor of gizmos and gadgets who dreams of becoming a great engineer. When her great-great-aunt Rose (Rosie the Riveter) comes for a visit and mentions her one unfinished goalâ€”to flyâ€”Rosie sets to work building a contraption to make her auntâ€™s dream come true. But when her contraption doesnâ€™t fly but rather hovers for a moment and then crashes, Rosie deems the invention a failure. On the contrary, Aunt Rose insists that Rosieâ€™s contraption was a raging success: you can only truly fail, she explains, if you quit.

From the powerhouse author-illustrator team of Iggy Peck, Architect comes Rosie Revere, Engineer, another charming, witty picture book about believing in yourself and pursuing your passion. Ada Twist, Scientist, the companion picture book featuring the next kid from Iggy Peck's class, is available in September 2016.

Praise for Rosie Revere, Engineer"Comically detailed mixed-media illustrations that keep the mood light and emphasize Rosieâ€™s creativity at every turn."â€”Publishers Weekly

"The detritus of Rosieâ€™s collections is fascinating, from broken dolls and stuffed animals to nails, tools, pencils, old lamps and possibly an erector set. And cheddar-cheese spray."
â€”Kirkus Reviews

"This celebration of creativity and perseverance is told through rhyming text, which gives momentum and steady pacing to a story, consistent with the celebration of its heroine, Rosie. Sheâ€™s an imaginative thinker who hides her light under a bushel (well, really, the bed) after being laughed at for one of her inventions."
