Rosie Revere dreams of becoming a great engineer. She creates wonderful gadgets and gizmos - but only when no one is watching. She's kept her inventions a secret ever since, when she was very small, her uncle Zookeeper Fred laughed at the special cheese hat she designed him to keep snakes at bay. But then great-great-great aunt Rosie, in her red-and-white spotted headscarf, appears on the scene, and helps Rosie to understand that sometimes you've got to risk failure before you can find success.

Students will analyze characters and story elements, as well as interpret quotes from the story, and develop a new engineering feat!

If you have a girl who likes to build and experiment, who think she might like to be an engineer, this story is for you. Rosie likes to create using, well, whatever hoses or springs or curtain rings or valves she can find. She’s also unafraid of failure. She documents each attempt in her engineer’s journal, noting when it’s a Fantastic Flop and when it’s a success. The story is great at showing the trial and error inherent in making new things.

Een prentenboek met grappige tekeningen vol details. Een boek dat ook in de week tegen pesten past. Een boek met verschillende emoties.I like the Questioneers series because I like science and engineering as well as art and the books feel like the combination of both subjects. I also like it because the books are like poems. The sentences rhymes. It was fun to read them. What's in a name? For one little girl, her very long name tells the vibrant story of where she came from — and who she may one day be.
