Things I Learnt in the Forest

When Thoko and her mom moves from the city to a plantation in Mpumalanga she is totally out of her comfort zone. There is no mall in sight and she has to take a taxi with the other kids from the plantation to school. She feels like such an outsider. At least Pabi seems to like her enough to invite her on a bike ride with Cal, the quiet boy. Thoko is mesmerized by the beauty of the forest, but someone is hurting the animals . . .
