          Sinopsis
          This short essay about reasons for joining the American Girl Guiding movement looks at what the author calls a period of 'lost' or uncertainty in a young girl's life. She postulates that the period between childhood and womanhood is difficult for a girl to navigate and that joining a movement like Girl Guiding will help to guide and nurture her dreams and ambitions.
          Acerca de Mary Roberts Rinehart

          Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876-1958) was one of the United Statess most popular early mystery authors. Born in Pittsburgh to a clerk at a sewing machine agency, Rinehart trained as a nurse and married a doctor after her graduation from nursing school. She wrote fiction in her spare time until a stock market crash sent her and her young husband into debt, forcing her to lean on her writing to pay the bills. Her first two novels, The Circular Staircase (1908) and The Man in Lower Ten (1909), established her as a bright young talent, and it wasnt long before she was one of the nations most popular mystery novelists.Among her dozens of novels are The Amazing Adventures of Letitia Carberry (1911), which began a six-book series, and The Bat (originally published in 1920 as a play), which was among the inspirations for Bob Kanes Batman. Credited with inventing the phrase The butler did it, Rinehart is often called an American Agatha Christie, even though she began writing much earlier than Christie, and was much more popular during her heyday.
