Captain Schnozzlebeard and the Singing Clam of Minnie Skewel Island

By Rebecca Blevins

Captain Gus Schnozzlebeard would rather hear a crocodile sharpening its teeth on sandpaper than listen to his pirate crew sing. To save his eardrums, he goes ashore to acquire musicians for his ship, the Scallywag III.

When explorer Helena Handicart tells the captain about a map that leads to the legendary Singing Clam of Minnie Skewel Island, he sets sail at once to find it. Except he doesn't know that another desperate and sneaky pirate wants the clam, too—but for a far more sinister purpose.

Captain Schnozzlebeard and his crew of misfit pirates must find the Singing Clam before it's too late. That is, if the Tu Ting Pits, sea monsters, and the British Navy don't get them first.

Rebecca Blevins

Rebecca Blevins decided that she never really wanted to grow up all the way. So she didn't. As a result, she loves reading and writing stories for children. When she's not telling tales about pirates, she writes kissing books for adults. Her favorite things are spending time with her husband and four children in their home near the Wasatch Mountains, sitting outside by a fire at night and roasting vegan marshmallows, and dreaming about her next trip to Washington State where she loves to write by the sea.
