Squeezing another middle grade book into #BBRC #YeahBaby #WhenItRainsItPours - and in this case it‘s pouring paint!

Rosie is a young engineer. When her great-great-aunt Rose asks her for help, she meets her Riveter friends ā€The smartest, sassiest, toughest bunch of airplane builders you ever saw.ā€¯

SO much to love in this! Scientists that keep experimenting, an explanation of valves, a bit of a history of Rosie the Riveter, and loads of fun!

rockpools @LibrarianRyan I‘ll have to check out the picture books, too. 5y

rockpools @Tamra Hope you and yours enjoy it š - it‘s got all the things I loved about Professor Brainstorm as a kid, but with girls and real science/engineering/history... Well impressed! 5y

rockpools @charl08 š‘¨ Will definitely try and find the others! 5y

LibrarianRyan @RachelO I love the picture books so much. There are 3, maybe 4 I think a new one came out this fall that I have not gotten to yet. 5y

rockpools @LibrarianRyan Going to have to find them! A completely unrelated question: Is SAGA an umbrella term, rather than an organisation? 5y

LibrarianRyan @RachelO Yep. It stands for Sexuality and gender acceptance. It means it just is. It's in the book and not explained. It's normalized if you will. 5y

rockpools @LibrarianRyan Got it - thank you! 5y

This is a great STEM book. Rosie, Ada, and Iggy are amazing characters who love science and do experiments and don't apologize for it. #STEM #juvenilebook

I‘ve enjoyed the picture books for years, so it‘s exciting to see these characters in a beginners‘ chapter book! Rosie Revere is recruited by the Raucous Riveters, a group of ladies who built planes together during WWII, for a special engineering project. Can Rosie and her friends, Ada & Iggy, create an invention that will work? I enjoyed seeing these characters in a longer & more fleshed our story. I can‘t wait to see where this series goes!
