 Canoe Quest

Molly of Denali follows the adventures of Molly, a feisty and resourceful Alaska Native girl, as she helps her parents run the Denali Trading Post in their Alaskan village. Designed to help kids develop skills around informational text such as using a map and following an instruction manual, this is the first nationally distributed children's series in the U.S. to feature an Alaska Native lead character.

Canoe Quest introduces preschoolers to the wonders of geology, geography, and the Alaska wilderness. Molly and her friend Nina float down the river to collect rock, mineral, and fossil samples for science. Players learn about Alaskan native culture as they identify and sort items.
