The Desert Walk

Once there was a deer. One day he was walking around the border of a desert. He saw a camel walking around. The camel said, “Hello, can you be a friend of mine?”

The deer said, “I don't like a friend like you.”

The camel said, “OK. So let's race around the desert and see who will win the race.”

The deer agreed and the race began.

The deer's small legs did not grip on the ground and the large legs of the camel gripped on the ground and the camel won the game.

And the camel said, “One more time I ask you. Are you going to be a friend of mine ?”

The deer said, “Yes.”

And the camel and the deer became good friends.
