Summary

In "The Banner Boy Scouts Mystery," George A. Warren melds adventure and intrigue with the spirit of camaraderie characteristic of early 20th-century children'Äôs literature. Set against the backdrop of the American outdoors, the narrative follows a troop of boy scouts as they embark on a thrilling quest filled with puzzles and challenges, interwoven with themes of friendship and bravery. Warren'Äôs prose is straightforward yet evocative, employing rich descriptions that bring both the characters and their adventures to life, all while reflecting the moral values of the time and the importance of teamwork and resourcefulness. George A. Warren, an author with a deep passion for youth culture and scout organizations, draws from personal experiences that resonated with young readers of his era. His background and understanding of adventure and the formative journeys of adolescence enable him to craft compelling stories that inspire growth and integrity. Warren's works often reflect the ideals of the Boy Scouts, promoting resilience, ethical conduct, and community engagement, a message he passionately believed would resonate with young readers. I highly recommend "The Banner Boy Scouts Mystery" to adults seeking to introduce timeless themes of adventure and morality to young readers. This book is not only an engaging story but also a gateway for discussions about ethics, friendship, and the joys of exploration. It serves as a delightful reminder of the importance of growing alongside our peers in the quest for self-discovery.

    Mary was the beloved daughter of a sailor and his wife who lived on a hill close to the sea. The rhyme calls her "Mistress Mary, quite contrary" because sad to say she was a contrary child often doing the exact opposite of what her mother and father advised for no reason but that she did not wish to follow their advice. But her parents loved her and knew that she would some day grow out of this peevish behavior. One day her father and brothers were to leave on a long sea journey and she asked him "	And how long will you be gone, papa?" He responded Why, just this, sweetheart," returned the sailor gravely; "all the time that it takes the cowslips and dingle-bells and cockle-shells to sprout from the ground, and grow big and strong, and blossom into flower, and, yes—to wither and die away again—all that time shall your brothers and I sail the seas. But when the cold winds begin to blow, and the flowers are gone, then, God willing, we shall come back to you; and by that time you may have grown wiser and bigger, and I am sure you will have grown older. So one more kiss, sweetheart, and then we must go, for our time is up." 
After he left, Mistress Mary decided to plant a garden of these flowers to know when her father and brothers would return and that garden is what the poem is talking about. But it did not happen as she expected! Oh no! Listen to this delightful story to see how Mary learned to not be so contrary.
