Overview

"Rose loves to write, draw, and play--but what happens when she has to face a project she's never done before?! With encouragement from her best friend, Brady, and some brainstorming with Dad, does Rose's rocket launcher project turn out to be less than stellar or out of this world?! What others are saying: ""I absolutely love how the book begins by engaging the reader to connect to the topic. Have you ever had to overcome a challenge? Throughout the book Rose must overcome both a challenging school assignment & her own self doubt. She learns a valuable lesson, and so will readers! A perfect classroom or family read aloud about mindset, overcoming challenges, persistence, and trying new things! Bonus! There are teacher resources and differentiated materials to pair with the book! Win, win!"" Sarah A., 2nd grade teacher ""The sweet giggles that I heard while reading this book to our two boys were just precious! This book helps them to build courage to try new things even when they are scared. It was relatable to me as a parent because our children have been in very similar situations, and now I can reference this book when it happens again! I'm amazed at how it appealed to the whole family, and of course we all want to make rockets now!"" Shanda C., mom of 2"

Author Information

"As a former second grade and elementary art teacher, Lauren Piland is a Louisiana native turned Texas homesteader who knows the importance of engaging read-alouds both in class and at home. After taking a step back from the classroom to raise her second child, she realized the gap some campuses face between the undersupported emotional struggles of students and the overwhelming responsibilities of teachers. ""When we can use tools such as books and relatable characters to open up those more meaningful conversations, both at home and in the classroom, it aids in that process of peeling back layers of getting to know each other better and building trust,"" says Piland. ""Children need to feel seen, feel heard, and feel protected. And we do that by tapping into our emotions."" Piland also wanted to further support teachers by including ready-to-use, curriculum-based exercises to go along with each book that focus on learning objectives such as reading comprehension strategies, vocabulary building and word mechanics exercises, writing prompts, whole group projects and STEM exercises with differentiated versions for students in Pre-K all the way to fourth grade."
