1 Bunches of Daisies. 1 Batch of Brownies. 4 Junior Sleuths. 1 Ghostly Town. And S’more than a few Creepy Clues.
Four funny girl scouts go to Savannah… Amber, Grace, Avery, and Ella. They are headed for a big Camporee but end up in the middle of a mystery.
Girl Scouts flood Savannah, Georgia, for the big 100th Anniversary Camporee! Mystery writer Mimi lives just a few blocks from the famous Juliette Gordon Low birthplace. Her Girl Scout granddaughters and friends camp out downstairs and take Savannah by storm… finding clues that lead them around the town where the girl scouting was born – on a mystery that takes all the scouting skills they have to solve.
This book also includes lots of EXTRA (Girl Scout!) STUFF to do:
• Create a mystery-writing patch!
• Read about Juliette Gordon Low and other famous scouts in history!
• Learn the lingo with a glossary of Girl Scout terms!
