A. Enjoy this new Monkey business!

Chimps Ahoy! The Year of the Monkey has arrived!
This is the 11th adventure in our annual series Tales from the Chinese Zodiac.
As legend goes, the Monkey King (aka Sun Wukong) is a classic trickster. He had magical abilities and performed fantastic feats in the water, land, and sky.
Now why wouldn't we expect any less from his son Max?
Well, Max embarks on his own journey, both to learn a new sport and to discover his own unique character!
Illustrated by DreamWorks animator Kenji Ono, Max is ready to take you on an exciting ride!
B. Happy Holidays!
