This week's book pick is Blessing's Bead by Debby Dahl Edwardson.

Many years ago, Blessing's great-grandmother Nutaaq suffered a loss so terrible she barely survived. Now Blessing is going back to the same remote village to stay with her grandmother, Aaka, far away from Anchorage and everything she knows. When Blessing discovers the blue bead that belonged to Nutaaq, will she begin to understand her family's past and be able to envision her own future?
