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.

I així va anar creixent, fins que un bon dia de tardor va arribar la tieta Rosalia del mocador. I la Rosa va tenir al cap una idea: I si ella construís un artefacte volador per a la seva tieta?

*** Dagli autori del bestseller del New York Times Ada la scienziata *** Questa è la storia di Rosie Revere, che sognava di diventare una grande ingegnera... Dove qualcuno vede solo un mucchio di spazzatura, Rosie Revere vede una fonte d''ispirazione. Di notte, nella sua stanza, la timida Rosie costruisce fantasiose invenzioni riciclando le cianfrusaglie che trova in giro. Distributori automatici di hot-dog, pantaloni volanti all''elio, cappelli scaccia-serpenti a base di pecorino: ogni sua creazione lascerebbe il mondo a bocca aperta, se solo Rosie permettesse a qualcuno di vederla. Invece, per la paura di fallire, Rosie nasconde i suoi marchingegni - e i suoi sogni - sotto il letto. Fino al giorno in cui riceve la visita della pro-pro-zia Rose, che le insegna una grande lezione: uno sbaglio non è mai qualcosa da temere bensì un motivo per festeggiare, perché sbagliare significa imparare. Andrea Beaty e David Roberts, la "squadra" dietro il successo di Ada la scienziata, danno vita a un''altra storia splendida e intelligente che insegna a coltivare le proprie passioni e celebra il valore della perseveranza. «Un libro che saprà ispirare le promesse di domani.» - Washington Post «Originali e ricche di dettagli, le illustrazioni sottolineano la creatività di Rosie senza mai perdere la freschezza di un libro per bambini.» - Publishers Weekly

"Armageddon-averting fun for fans of Jon Scieszka''s Spaceheadz and M.T. Anderson''s Pals in Peril" —from the author of Attack of the Fluffy Bunnies ( Kirkus Reviews). When film-loving twins Joules and Kevin Rockman left their summer camp, they thought their days of fighting evil bunnies from outer space were over. Surely there won''t be giant rabbits bent on world domination at their school, right? Wrong. Luckily, these bunnies aren''t FLUFFS (Fierce, Large, Ugly, and Ferocious Furballs)—sugar-addicted giant rabbits out to hypnotize and kill. Unluckily, they''re worse: the FOOFS (Fierce, Obnoxious, Odoriferous Furballs)—seemingly normal-size rabbits (with extra-large noses) out to take over the world! Can Joules and Kevin save themselves, and their school, from the Schnoz of Doom? Seriously funny New York Times–bestselling author Andrea Beaty raises the stakes in this sequel to her zany, pulpy sci-fi farce. And, not to use Famous Last Words, but with illustrations by Caldecott-winning artist Dan Santat ( The Adventures of Beekle, Crankenstein), what could possibly go wrong? Praise for Attack of the Fluffy Bunnies "A lighthearted, clever send-up of zany horror conventions, this book is just the thing for kids about ready for M. T. Anderson''s Whales on Stilts." — Booklist "Beaty''s storytelling is lighthearted and fast-paced . . . her unconventional and entertaining narrative make it a wholly fun read." — Publishers Weekly

Both parents and children will love Iggy Peck, Architect, a fun-filled, inspiring, colorful New York Times bestselling picture book, from author Andrea Beaty and illustrator David Roberts, about the power of teamwork and the importance of celebrating individual gifts and self-expression. Watch Iggy Peck in the Netflix television series Ada Twist, Scientist! “Read it at bedtime (it’s a quick read!), chuckle with your children, and send them to dreamland.” —American Institute of Architects Some kids sculpt sandcastles. Some make mud pies. Some construct great block towers. But none are better at building than Iggy Peck, who once erected a life-size replica of the Great Sphinx on his front lawn! It’s too bad that few people appreciate Iggy’s talent—certainly not his second-grade teacher, Miss Lila Greer. It looks as if Iggy will have to trade in his T-square for a box of crayons . . . until a fateful field trip proves just how useful a master builder can be. A story told in verse, this is a book that shows the power of education and science. Iggy Peck is a child who once “built a great tower—in only an hour—with nothing but diapers and glue.” The structured rhymes and lively illustrations fit the architectural theme, and the text uses absorbing details of Iggy’s world to bring the tale to life. Each of Iggy’s classmates has their own unique quality, implying the variety of personalities and potentials to be appreciated in any group of children. Young readers will love their time spent with Iggy Peck. They’ll love the story, colorful illustrations, and also learn about the passion and practicality of science (STEM).
