📘 Rosie Revere, Engineer by Andrea Beaty

Rosie Revere is a small girl who spends her nights crafting gadgets and dreaming of becoming a renowned engineer. When her great‑great‑aunt Rose, inspired by the legacy of Rosie the Riveter, visits and recalls an unfinished wish—to fly—Rosie dedicates herself to building a machine that will make that dream soar. Although the invention initially only lifts briefly before crashing, Rosie labels it a failure, while her aunt celebrates it as a triumph, reminding her that true failure comes only when one quits. Through this charming rhyme‑filled picture book, young readers discover the value of persistence, creativity, and the courage to keep building despite setbacks.
