Kiagumuuq! is an interactive app narrated in the Indigenous Alutiiq language of Alaska that celebrates summer in the Alutiiq world.

Kiagumuuq! is an original story that celebrates summer in the Alutiiq world narrated in the Alutiiq language as spoken on Afognak and Kodiak Island Alaska, with an option in English.

You will be amazed at how these wonderful children's stories come to life with this bi-lingual interactive App. Children love being able to run their fingers over the text to hear the story and touch any word to hear it said or spelt. They will happily spend hours coloring in the book and they can record themselves as well. It's great fun for kids of all ages and it helps with early learning and literacy development. They can even explore other languages and have loads of fun while they do it.

Original book produced by the Native Village of Afognak through a grant from the Administration for Native Americans (#90NL0530-01-00). App version produced through a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS Enhancement NG-03-15-008-15).
