Molly of Denali

Molly & Elizabeth / Uqiquq

Molly is excited to give a tour of the village to two visitors, but they don't seem to think she is Native enough for the job. Molly learns about someone who also faced discrimination for being Alaska Native, Elizabeth Peratrovich, and is inspired to show the visitors what it really means to be Native. Then, Tooey's family is throwing a Uqiquq, a special Yup'ik celebration in honor of his first catch. Tooey wants to give his Grandma a special gift - a speech in Yup'ik - but will he be able to learn the Native words in time?
