Over two million Girl Scouts worldwide owe their membership to its founder, Juliette Low - a woman who, as a girl growing up in the post Civil War South, refused to accept that girls couldnt do everything boys could. Whether angrily defending her friend against taunts of schoolmates or rescuing a kitten from the highest branches of a tree, Low possessed the spirit and strength of character that would lead her in adulthood to act as a world-famous advocate for girls. Children will experience Lows joy at the gift of her very own horse, feel her excitement at attending her first dance, and share her frustration with being thrust in to the role of a well-behaved 19th-century young lady who would rather have been riding, creating sculptures, or climbing.

Lady from Savannah: The Life Of Juliette Low by Gladys Denny Shultz,Daisy Gordon Lawrence Pdf
This autobiography tells the story of Juliette Gordon Low, the founder of Girl Scouts of the USA with the help of Sir Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scouting Movement. But this is much more than the story of one woman and the organization she started: it is first of all a chronicle of two great American families—the Kinzies, who were founders of Chicago, and the Gordons, whose name is magic to this day in Savannah, Georgia—that in 1860 produced the gallant, willful, exasperating, generous, and wholly lovable Juliette (known as Daisy) Gordon. The narrative of Daisy's marriage to Willy Low also offers insider's view of Edwardian high society in England. The Girl Scouts are most particularly proud that this woman from a background of wealth and privilege was able to envision a youth movement “for the girls of all America,” which serves a membership of ever-increasing diversity as the diversity of our country grows.

One hundred years later, Daisy's life lessons still motivate and encourage thousands of young girls and women across the country through the Girl Scout organization. Shannon Henry Kleiber gives Daisy's classic, timeless advice a modern focus that is sure to inspire women of all generations. learn from Daisy's words of wisdom and strive to: Know Yourself and Be Yourself Love Living Things Give to Others Be a Sister Challenge Yourself "Have you ever stopped to think that your most constant companion throughout life will be yourself?
