| "Since the enormous success
of our "Motor Boys Series," by Clarence Young, we have been asked
to get out a similar series for girls. No one is better equipped to furnish
these tales than Mrs. Penrose, who, besides being an able writer, is an
expert automobilist."

- THE MOTOR GIRLS; or, A Mystery of the Road -- "When
Cora Kimball got her touring car she did not imagine so many adventures
were in store for her. During a trip from one city to another a rich
young man lost a pocketbook containing valuable stocks and much cash.
Later, to the surprise of everybody, the empty pocketbook was found in
the toolbox of Cora's automobile. A fine tale that all wide-awake girls
will appreciate." -- 1910. Cupples & Leon, Goldsmith. Read

- THE MOTOR GIRLS ON A TOUR; or, Keeping a Strange Promise -- "A
great many things happen in this volume, starting with the running over
of a hamper of good things lying in the road. A precious heirloom is
missing, and how it was traced up is told with absorbing interest. Mrs.
Penrose's books are as safe as they are interesting and should be on the
