An Eskimo girl uses magic to transform barren tundra into a berry paradise.
In a land where only hard crowberries grow, young Anana, a Yupik Eskimo girl, hears the village women lamenting their meager harvest. With a song under the full moon, she transforms her handmade dolls into lively girls who scatter across the tundra, leaving behind a bounty of juicy blueberries, cranberries, salmonberries, and raspberries. As the village prepares for the Fall Festival, Anana's magic ensures a feast filled with sweet, vibrant berries. Will her enchanting gift change the tundra forever, or is there more magic to discover?
When the old women complain about having only dry, tasteless crowberries to use for the fall feast, Anana, a Yupik Eskimo girl, uses a little magic to provide luscious cranberries, blueberries, raspberries, and salmonberries.
