The Big Idea

Beschreibung

When a snowstorm cancels school, three adventurous sisters turn a snowy day off into an unforgettable business venture. Ruby, Hadley, and Poppy are bursting with energy and ideas. With creativity, marshmallows, and their dad's prized espresso machine in hand, the girls launch a high-speed cocoa stand that quickly becomes the talk of the neighborhood. But when the line grows longer, and wilder, they'll need more than hot chocolate to keep things running. With spills, surprises, and sibling chaos piling up, can teamwork and a few clever upgrades save the day? Full Speed Sisters: The Big Idea is a fresh, funny, and heart-filled children's picture book that celebrates sisterhood, creativity, and turning boredom into brilliance. Perfect for kids ages 4 to 8, this story captures the spirit of snow days, big ideas, and the magic that happens when kids take the lead. * Perfect for families, classrooms, and young entrepreneurs * Includes themes of teamwork, perseverance, and creative problem-solving * Great for fans of real-life inspired stories and strong sibling dynamics This is the first book in the Full Speed Sisters series, a modern picture book collection that follows three real-life sisters (and their stinky dog Hamish) through big ideas, small disasters, and laugh-out-loud moments. Each book blends fast-paced storytelling with humor, heart, and STEM-friendly (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) adventures. Whether your child loves science, sports, dance, invention, or simply creating something from nothing, they'll find a little bit of themselves in the Full Speed Sisters. It's the perfect blend of action and imagination, wrapped up in a story parents will love to read aloud again and again. Let the adventure begin.

Autor

Derek Rowland is a civil engineer, children's book author, and proud girl dad. He lives in Colorado with his wife, three high-speed daughters, and their fluffy (and famously stinky) dog, Hamish.Growing up with two brothers, Derek never imagined his future would involve dance recitals, gymnastics meets, or late-night cello practice, but he wouldn't have it any other way. Inspired by the wild energy and nonstop creativity of his real-life daughters, he created Full Speed Sisters, a book series that celebrates modern girlhood through adventure, problem-solving, and heart.By day, Derek manages heavy construction projects; by night, he's wrangling homework, shuttling kids around, and sketching out the next story idea. He considers himself an amateur artist and a passionate advocate for helping kids, especially girls, see themselves as builders, thinkers, leaders, and dreamers.When he's not writing or chasing Hamish around the backyard, you'll find Derek with his wife exploring Colorado's trails, drinking too much coffee, and making last-minute Target runs before ski practice.
