Don’t know much about history? As we start thinking toward Girl Scout Week, it’s a perfect time to look back at more than a century of scouting.

Check out these historical Girl Scout books – now public domain materials – that you can download for your ebook reader. Currently these are both listed for free!

Scouting For Girls, Official Handbook of the Girl Scouts (1925)

The Girl Scouts Their History and Practice

You can also throw back to older Girl Scout books and badges, many of which are deeply discounted on Amazon. I’ve been able to pick up Interest Project books in print for $4 including shipping. Or older girls working on their Detective or Special Agent badges might enjoy hearing bits from How Girl Guides Won the War.

Working on a cooking badge? Try the original Girl Scout cookie recipe,  or some of these camping recipes from Girl Guides past.
