The beloved New York Times bestselling picture book about pursuing one's passion with persistence and learning to celebrate each failure on the road to achieving one's dreams. And now you can follow Rosie's further adventures--with her friends Iggy Peck and Ada Twist--in the instant New York Times bestseller Rosie Revere and the Raucous Riveters, the first in a BRAND-NEW chapter book series, The Questioneers! Rosie Revere dreamed of becoming a great engineer. Where some people see rubbish, Rosie sees inspiration. Alone in her room at night, shy Rosie constructs great inventions from odds and ends. Hot dog dispensers, helium pants, python-repelling cheese hats: Rosie's gizmos would astound--if she ever let anyone see them. Afraid of failure, she hides them away under her bed. Until a fateful visit from her great-great-aunt Rose (AKA Rosie the Riveter!), who shows her that the first flop isn't something to fear--it's something to celebrate. And you can only truly fail, if you quit.

A young aspiring engineer must first conquer her fear of failure.

Rosa Pionera soñaba con ser una gran ingeniera... Sola en el desván, bajo la luz de la luna, montaba chismes y artefactos como ninguna. Por timidez no se atrevía a decir nada, rebuscaba en la basura y recogía cachivaches que atesoraba. Con ellos construía sus inventos, pero nadie podía ver sus descubrimientos. Todo siguió igual hasta que el otoño llegó y su pariente más antiguo se presentó. ¡Su tía abuela Rosie! Y a Rosa se le ocurrió una idea de lo más atrevida: construir un artilugio para hacer volar a su tía. Un álbum muy divertido que nos anima a perseverar en nuestras pasiones.
