Bookroo's summary

Juliette Gordon Low, known as Daisy, defied Victorian norms with her love for adventure and the outdoors. Determined to make a difference, she founded the Girl Scouts, empowering girls to embrace service and adventure. Her legacy lives on as the Girl Scouts continue to inspire and impact the world. How did Daisy's vision transform into a century-long movement?

From the publisher

The amazing, all-true story of the first Girl Scouts and their visionary founder.Juliette Gordon Low–Daisy to her friends and family–was not like most girls of the Victorian era. Prim and proper? BOSH! Dainty and delicate? HOW BORING! She loved the outdoors, and she yearned for adventure! Born into a family of pathfinders and pioneers, she too wanted to make a difference in the world–and nothing would stop her. Combining her ancestors’ passion for service with her own adventurous spirit and her belief that girls could do anything, she founded the Girl Scouts. One hundred years later, they continue to have adventures, do good deeds, and make a difference!
