Thinking ahead to the holidays and gift giving? Books make a GREAT gift – no batteries required! Plus, books can be read again and again and passed down to younger siblings for their enjoyment, too. We can’t get enough good books in our house!
My 7-year-old is an avid reader who is always on the lookout for new reading material, so I was thrilled to get a peek at Rosie Revere and the Raucous Riveters, the first book in an all-new series recommended for kids ages 6-9. If you’ve heard of The Questioneers and Rosie Revere, Ada Twist, and Iggy Peck (and even if you haven’t), you’ll love these brand-new adventures!
The Questioneers series is a celebration of STEM, perseverance, and passion. Like its characters – Iggy Peck, Rosie Revere, and Ada Twist – every budding architect, engineer, scientist, mathematician, and leader will become inspired to solve everyday mysteries and come to think more critically about their world. Most importantly, they will learn that despite the inevitable difficulty in achieving success, they should always continue to “Read. Question. Think.” — and never give up on their dreams.
In this new book, Rosie Revere is no stranger to flops and fails, kerfuffles and catastrophes. After all, engineering is all about perseverance! But this time, Rosie has a really important project to tackle—one that feels much bigger than herself. Rosie’s beloved Aunt Rose and her friends, the Raucous Riveters — a group of fun-loving gals who built airplanes during World War II — need Rosie’s help. One of the Riveters needs a special contraption to paint in Blue River Creek’s annual mural competition. And Rosie’s just the engineer for the job!
After one flop…then another…and another…Rosie starts to lose hope. But thanks to some help from her classmates Iggy Peck and Ada Twist, Rosie creates the Paintapolooza, and, along with the Riveters, she rediscovers the meaning of home.

Experiments–hmm. I know we raised plants in 1st grade and learned that if you leave a plant in a box in the dark it will die, because plants need light! It was quite exciting!

Had to write a report on soil erosion – My Mom suggested I use the dirt in the garden and make a pile and work all my experiments with that – by the end of the 2nd week – my pile had disappeared and I was totally upset as my experiments were not complete. When discussing my sadness at the dinner table I learned that my Father had smooshed it down thinking that a critter was creating a home under the dirt – lol., Was able to write that not all weather elements mess with erosion – sometimes it is humans!
