These three books were a major score at the thrift store! It all started with Iggy Peck, Architect, about a boy driven to build and design buildings. He even makes a bridge that saves his class and wins his teacher over! From there Andrea Beaty imagines other classmates' stories including Rosie Revere who wants to be an engineer and has to learn the value in failing sometimes. And finally Ada Twist who is alway asking the questions "why," while her parents learn to celebrate her endless curiosity. The illustrations are what really set these books apart. The patterns, the details, the mid century flair!
