At recess, Noko and his friends scurry out of class at Nature's Night School hurriedly so that they can devour the yummy lunches that their parents packed for them. Upon opening their lunch bags, and seeing Mmabudu's lunch squirming about, it becomes clear to these bushveld buddies that, not only do they enjoy very different treats, but they also look quite different and that their families do things in very different ways. This sparks intrigue and leads Noko to investigate what makes each of their tribes so unique, and special. This leads to the celebration of the kaleidoscope of South African people and cultures; our "Rainbow Nation".

Ver los almuerzos diferentes muy que cada uno de los amigos de campo mordisquea en la escuela despierta la intriga y lleva a Noko a investigar qué hace que cada uno de sus amigos y tribus sea único y especial.

Toe die klok lui vir pouse, storm Nôko en sy vriende haastig uit die klaskamer by Nagskool van die Natuur, sodat hulle kan begin smul aan die heerlike kos wat hulle ouers vir hulle ingepak het. Nadat hulle hul kosblikkies oopgemaak het, het hulle verstom gekyk hoe Mmaboedoe se kos wriemel. Hierdie bosveld tjommies het besef dat hulle nie almal dieselfde soorte kos eet, of selfs dieselfde lyk nie, maar dat die verskillende vriende dinge baie verskillend doen. Hulle nuuskierigheid was omtrent geprikkel en dit het gelei na 'n ondersoek van Nôko om te sien wat elkeen van die verskillende vriende so uniek en spesiaal maak.

After a hot day in South Africa's Mpumalanga bushveld, Noko, a young crested porcupine with a big heart, scurries out of his burrow to meet up with his many friends at Nature's Night School. But just before he leaves, his parents summon him back with exciting news. He's going to be a big brother! Unfortunately, Noko isn't nearly as thrilled as his mother and father. Noko is the baby of the family, and he thinks it should stay that way. A charming story of friendship and compassion, NOKO THE KNIGHT(R) is the perfect tale for young readers who are learning how to express their budding emotions and to navigate healthy friendships as they do so.
