Monkey's Sweet Surprise

A Lunar New Year Mix-Up

Characters from the Malay and Vietnamese zodiacs celebrate the Lunar New Year in this clever twist on a zodiac tale. Everyone bakes desserts for the Jade Empress’s banquet, but Monkey is still embarrassed by some high-flying hijinks from last year. He plans to make a dessert on his own. When he overhears that his friends are missing ingredients, he rushes to help, leaving his own dessert unfinished. Though his hands are empty, his heart is filled by the love and forgiveness of his friends.
