Set in Manhattan, this animated comedy/adventure series tells the story of 13-year-old skateboarder Jake Long, a Chinese-American boy who must balance ordinary adolescent transformation with a very cool secret... he is a descendent of dragons, the Chinese culture's ultimate representation of excellence and the forces of Mother Nature.
