By Katherine Keene Galt

"The Girl Scouts Rally; or, Rosanna Wins" by Katherine Keene Galt is a touching narrative centered around the lives of three young girls, Rosanna, Helen, and Elise, who are members of the Girl Scouts. Set in Louisville, the story begins with the girls contemplating ways to help Gwenny, a young girl suffering from a severe spinal condition that requires an expensive operation. Despite the financial constraints faced by their families, the girls are determined to raise the necessary funds themselves. Rosanna, inspired by the idea of a benefit performance, decides to write a play about the Girl Scouts, hoping it will generate enough money to cover Gwenny's medical expenses. The narrative unfolds with Rosanna diligently working on her play, while her friends support her by practicing songs and dances to be included in the performance. The play becomes a collaborative effort, with the involvement of their Girl Scout Captain, Miss Hooker, and Rosanna's Uncle Robert, who offers to help with the logistics of staging the play. The story highlights the themes of friendship, determination, and the power of community as the girls rally together to achieve their goal. As the play takes shape, the girls face various challenges, including finding a suitable venue and ensuring the play's success. Their efforts are further complicated by an encounter with Mr. Harriman, a grumpy old man who inadvertently becomes a part of their journey. Through their perseverance and teamwork, the girls learn valuable lessons about compassion and the impact of their actions on others.
