Book excerpt: Thin Mint Memories: Scouting for Empowerment through the Girl Scout Cookie Program celebrates an American treasure by examining the first century of the cookie's history and explores how participating in the Girl Scout cookie program leads to girl empowerment. This humorous and poignant story follows a Maryland troop through their cookie sales season and uses interviews with key Girl Scout staff to reveal the cookie program's impact on the troop, council, and national levels. In Thin Mint Memories, Scouts past and present and their faithful customers will discover the roles each box of cookies plays in helping girls develop life skills that will serve them long after the last cookie crumb is eaten.
