Summary "The Motor Girls on a Tour" by Margaret Penrose is a novel likely written during the early 20th century. The story follows a group of adventurous young women, specifically focusing on the determined and skilled Cora Kimball and her motor-girl friends as they embark on a road trip, encountering various escapades and challenges along the way. The narrative emphasizes themes of independence and camaraderie as the girls navigate their journey without the presence of boys, aiming to assert their own identity and excitement on the open road. At the start of the book, the reader is introduced to the lively camaraderie of the motor girls, with Cora expertly driving her car, the Whirlwind, alongside her friends Hazel Hastings and the Robinson twins. Their journey begins with an accidental mishap involving another group of young people, leading to a humorous yet chaotic scene as they deal with a spoiled lunch and the arrival of boys as unwelcome interlopers. As they continue on their journey, the girls express enthusiasm for their upcoming tour, showcasing their determination to have fun independently while setting up a light-hearted rivalry with the boys, hinting at both friendship and adventure that will unfold as the story progresses.
