"The car must come to Cora on the eve of her birthday," Jack's mother had stipulated to him, "and I want it to come to her brand new, with the tires nice and white. Hers must be the first ride in it." So it was, after "digesting her surprise," as she expressed it, and spending the intervening hour in admiring the beautiful machine, climbing in and out of it, testing the levers, turning the steering wheel, and seeing Jack start the engine, that Cora was able to leave it and enter the house. "It's-it's just perfect;" she said, with a longing look back at the car. "Yes, and isn't it a shame mother won't let you go out in it to-night?" spoke Jack as he joined his sister at the window. "If they had only unpacked it a little earlier-it's too bad not to have a run in it while it's fresh. But," he concluded with a sigh, "I suppose I'll have to push it back in the shed." "Yes," assented Cora, also sighing. "But mother must be humored, and if she insists that I shall not take a trial spin after dark, I'll simply have to wait until daylight.

"Say, girls, isn't this the best thing ever?" Cora Kimball, the girl whose hand was on the wheel of the motor car as it sped swiftly along a sun-flecked country road, put the words in the form of a question, but they were really an exclamation drawn from her by sheer delight in living. She was gloriously indifferent as to an answer, but the answer came just the same from the two pretty girls who occupied the seat behind her. "It's perfectly grand!" cried Belle Robinson, the more slender of the two, as she snuggled down still more luxuriously in the soft cushions of the automobile. "It seems to me yet as though it must be a dream," declared her twin sister Bess, who was considerably larger than either of her companions. "Pinch me, somebody, so that I can be sure it's real."

'"The Motor Girls" is a series of young adult novels written by Margaret Penrose in the early 20th century. The series follows a group of teenage girls who form a motor club and embark on exciting adventures together. Throughout the series, free friends are trying to solve mysteries, help people in need, and take on daring challenges while driving their cars. The books were popular in their time because they offered young girls a sense of independence and adventure, which was unusual for female characters in literature at the time. They also provided a window into the early days of the automobile industry and the culture surrounding it. Although the series is somewhat dated by modern standards, it remains a beloved classic among those who enjoy vintage children's literature and early 20th-century Americana.

The daughter of an elderly Civil War soldier who publishes a weekly newspaper in a small eastern town is Dorothy Dale. Her upbeat demeanor, sense of humor, and tales of struggles and victories make for clean, intriguing reading. Margaret Penrose, writing under a pen name, is the author of the girls' book series Dorothy Dale. Between 1908 and 1924, the Stratemeyer Syndicate published thirteen volumes in the series. Cupples & Leon was the publisher of the books. Readers learn that Dorothy Dale is fourteen years old and resides in the little New York town of Dalton in the first book, Dorothy Dale: A Girl of Today. Dorothy appears older and "actually extremely sensible for her years" because her mother had passed away. Major Frank Dale, a well-known Civil War veteran, is her father. He runs The Bugle, the only newspaper in Dalton, and is involved in the G.A.R. Dorothy helps him out in the newspaper office, and he refers to his daughter as his Little Captain. The Dale family also includes elderly Mrs. Martin, the housekeeper, and children Joe, 10, and Roger, 7. The kind woman is referred to as Aunt Libby by the kids. Octavia Travers, sometimes known as Tavia, is Dorothy's closest friend.
