<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="Default"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11.5pt"><font face="Times New Roman">The books were made
available through a gift for printing provided to Girl Scouts of the USA. This
gift honors the memory of Jane O’Connor Verhage, who was a former Girl Scout
troop leader, Board Member, and former Director of Volunteers for Braille
Institute of America. Girl Scouts of Connecticut’s Program Department
requested that this free resource be made available to all of Connecticut’s
membership. <o:p></o:p></font></span></div>

Journey books are included in this collection: <i>It’s Your World, Change It!
It’s Your Planet, Love It!</i>, and <i>It’s Your Story, Tell It</i>! These
Leadership Journeys allow girls to hone their leadership skills while
exploring a particular topic. Each Journey has a selection of activities and
experiences that are tied to the 15 national outcomes of the Girl Scout
Leadership Experience, which helps girls discover themselves and their values,
connect with others to build healthy relationships, and take action to make
their world and community a better place. This collection includes both girl
books and adult guides. <o:p></o:p></font></span></div>
