Verse
When I grow up, I want to be courageous
unafraid to face my fears
and take a big leap
When I grow up I want to be Creative
Quick to think
Quick to think
full of practice and delivery

Chorus
Surround myself with words of hope
Words that make me feel happy
Surround myself with fresh air
And words help me so prepare
About the Book
Rosie Revere Engineer
By Andrea Beaty
Rosie may seem quiet during the day, but at night she’s a brilliant inventor of gizmos and gadgets who dreams of becoming a great engineer. When her great-great-aunt Rose (Rosie the Riveter) comes for a visit and mentions her one unfinished goal–to fly–Rosie sets to work building a contraption to make her aunt’s dream come true. But when her contraption doesn’t fl y but rather hovers for a moment and then crashes, Rosie deems the invention a failure. On the contrary, Aunt Rose inisists that Rosie’s contraption was a raging success. You can only truly fail, she explains, if you quit.
