There's danger afoot on the island of Hainan. A crew of Australian animals awaits the arrival of the wicked Pie Rats who roam the South China Seas destroying everthing in their path. Who will help them defeat the Pie Rats? Only the wise old Confucian Black Bear can tell, and he knows how difficult the quest will be. For, to win this battle, they must summon the bravest force in the whole of China: the Fighting Pandas of Yunnan, whose martial arts skills are the stuff of legends but who answer only to the call of the Great South Wind. And she has been silent for centuries. Someone, somewhere, must know how to reach her!
