Book for Bold EngineersPraise for Rosie Revere, Engineer “Comically detailed
mixed-media illustrations that keep the mood light and emphasize Rosie’s
creativity at every turn.” —Publishers Weekly “The detritus of Rosie’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.” —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. She’s an imaginative
thinker who hides her light under a bushel (well, really, the bed) after being
laughed at for one of her inventions.” —BooklistAward 2013 Parents’ Choice
