'Nyoman wants to be a vet, not a dancer like his brother and sister. He especially loves the monkeys in the Sacred Monkey Forest. What he finds on the side of the road one day might fulfil his dream – or ruin it.' (Publication summary)

'Blake’s new full-colour Asian Stories are contemporary tales set across Asia and the Pacific. Students follow characters their own age in their local environments – at school, at home, in the village, visiting local landmarks – so they can observe everyday life in another culture. With a window into the social and cultural norms of our near neighbours, these books are valuable tools to build both literacy skills and cross-cultural understanding.
'This series has been written specifically for the Australian Curriculum priority: ‘Asia and Australia’s engagement with Asia’.' (Publication summary)
