Fantastic picture book about the true story of the founder of The Girl Scouts. Great message, beautiful illustrations. Loved it! ( ) You know, I've never thought much about the Girl Scouts. I buy their cookies, I was a Brownie when I was little, I occasionally help scouts find materials at the library for projects, but until I read this book I didn't fully appreciate the feminist roots of the Girl Scouts. It makes me wish I had stuck with it. Also, I may start saying "Bosh!" when something is nonsense. A picture book biography of Juliette Gordon Low, of Savannah, Georgia, founder of the Girl Scouts. Samples of JGL's own language (from letters, etc.) are included. Extensive back matter includes additional information on JGL and Girl Scouts history, the GS promise and law, photographs, and a list of sources. Daisy Low was an eccentric woman in the Victorian age, with her love for the outdoors and sense of adventure. She traveled all over the world and did many exciting things, but she was looking for a sense of purpose. When she traveled to England and saw the Boy Scout organization and its' Girl Guides offshoot, she was inspired to create her own version for American girls. Daisy's began working hard to found what will later become the Girl Scout organization that exists today. Some people disapproved of an organization encouraging young girls to exercise, spend time outdoors, and learn outdoor skills, but the Girl Scouts still grew rapidly. This organization retains its original values still of diversity, inclusion, a belief that girls can do anything, and a passion for the environment. This was a well-written book telling the story of an organization that many kids are familiar with. I really liked the writing style and loved the illustrations, as they were both very playful and highlighted Daisy's passion and adventurous spirit. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
