Go back in time for Christmas.
Clam the Wham and Min the Pin, a delightful-looking book written and drawn by Coupeville author Beatrice Powell in 1983, is now available to buy in person or online for the first time.
The artwork which is the basis for the book was found by her daughter, CHS grad Sarah (Powell) Lyngra, when she was cleaning out boxes.
The Min from the title is Sarah’s younger sister, who, like everyone in the family, is a former Wolf athlete.
Brother Caleb rounds out Beatrice’s pack o’ kids, all now adults.
The book is available to buy at The Kingfisher Bookstore on Front Street in Coupeville.
Purchasing it there allows you to gaze out at the tidelands and see where Beatrice Powell set her tale.
The house shown in the book is the historic “The House on Penn Cove,” now an Airbnb.
“The book is a delight full of whimsy and would make a great Christmas present for readers of all ages,” Lyngra said.
“Mom’s art is lovely, and I’m delighted to share it with the world. I think she would be thrilled that it has been officially published.”
