Maine, on the other hand, reminds me of my Great-Aunt Jane, who would bring me back presents from Boothbay Harbor, like One Morning in Maine and a pillow stuffed with pine needles and MAINE in green letters on top. Hitchhiking was involved in both cases, and sleeping bags, large bugs, and not enough food. I considered Cape Cod as a destination, but my sense of the Cape is tied up with memories of uncomfortable visits with boyfriends-two different ones-back in my youth. In the third Penderwicks book, The Penderwicks at Point Mouette, I sent the three younger sisters to the ocean for two weeks with their Aunt Claire. To celebrate this fabulous event we’ve invited “Penderwicks” author Jeanne Birdsall to be our Guest Blogger – we know you’ll want to get your hands on a copy of this book asap but first, spend some time with with us and see what inspires this talented writer.
Today is the official on-sale date of The Penderwicks at Point Mouette and it’s a thrill for all of us to be able to visit with this lovely, quirky family once again.
