Camera!
8 pp · Non-Fiction, Biography
Margaret Bourke-White

Margaret Bourke-White saw beauty where others saw only industry, and her camera proved it—this biography traces how a young photographer's eye for the extraordinary transformed her from a Cornell student taking pictures to pay tuition into America's ace woman photographer, capturing everything from the Chrysler Building's dizzying heights to the industrial might of Germany and the Soviet Union. Her story shows how courage, vision, and an unwillingness to play it safe opened doors few women had ever walked through.

Susie Lou Threatens Their Fashion Show!
5 pp · Adventure

The Yorktown gang sets out to promote their fashion show with posters, but when local business owners refuse to display them, the kids hatch a clever scheme to win them over—by recruiting their daughters as models. When younger Susie Lou is turned away from the show, she takes matters into her own hands in a bid to force her way in, threatening to derail the whole event. With the help of some clever detective work, the gang uncovers who's behind the sabotage and must decide whether to teach Susie Lou a lesson or give the determined kid her shot at stardom.

Juliette Gordon Low

Juliette Gordon Low was a talented artist and devoted dreamer—one who refused to let deafness, loss, or convention stand between her and a lifelong mission for peace. Inspired by Sir Robert Baden-Powell's scouting movement, she returned to America in 1912 and founded Girl Scouting in Savannah, Georgia, channeling her tireless energy into building a national organization that would eventually grow to hundreds of thousands of members. Watch as her unshakeable belief in young women—and her legendary persistence—transform a personal longing into a movement that would unite girls across the globe.
