About This Book

A group of Camp Fire Girls convene in a cozy, rustic meeting chamber where ceremonies, music, and practical outdoor skills set the scene for a sequence of playful episodes. The girls engage in pranks, outings, and cooperative tasks that reveal ingenuity, loyalty, and good humor; incidents include comic misunderstandings with a motor car, musical mishaps, campfire cookery, and handicraft projects. Told in an episodic, leisure-minded way, the narrative highlights friendship, wholesome recreation, and everyday lessons in teamwork and self-reliance.
