Join us for a quarterly reading adventure with the Girl Scouts of Gulfcoast Florida! Each quarter, participating Girl Scouts will receive a featured book from the official Girl Scouts + HarperCollins publishing partnership-stories that uplift, inspire, and reflect the values of courage, confidence, and character.
After reading the book, girls will be invited to a fun and engaging Zoom discussion where they can connect with fellow Girl Scouts, share their thoughts, and explore the story's themes through meaningful conversation and exclusive insights from the author.
Let's turn the page together-one great book at a time!
How it works:
- Sign up each quarter to participate.
- Receive a Girl Scout book in the mail (included with registration).
- Join the Zoom discussion a few weeks later to share their thoughts and connect with other readers.
All new members will receive an exclusive Book Club Patch to proudly display on their sash or vest.
Featured Book - Summer 2025:
Maven Takes the Lead by Yamile Saied Méndez
Maven wants to be known for something great.
She had been nervous about starting fifth grade after spending all summer with her little brother and baby cousins. So, when her fifth-grade teacher announces a district-wide robotics competition, she jumps at the opportunity to be the class's leader. Being in charge is better and cooler than playing make-believe, right? Many people doubt her, especially the boys in her class, but with the support of her friends and Girl Scout troop, Maven is determined to prove them wrong.
Then she goes overboard with her dedication to the competition, and she seems to be disappointing everyone-including herself. She begins to realize maybe being herself is what she needed to do all along.
A perfect read for Brownie and Junior-level Girl Scouts, girls will not only connect with Maven's journey but also discover what being a Girl Scout is truly all about.
