In this episode (25:25) students explore Alaska Native culture and the importance of dog sledding in the 11-minute animated story "Tooey's Hero" from the PBS KIDS series MOLLY OF DENALI. Tooey, an aspiring dog musher, is excited to meet his hero, champion racer and philanthropist Eugene Pike, who is dogsledding to Qyah. Molly and Tooey track his progress using a map and Pike's video blog -- two types of informational text -- and realize they must act quickly to warn Pike about warming ice conditions. Can they find him in time so that he can finish recreating the historic Great Mail Race?
