I wrote to the Courier Junior page
once before, but my letter was not
printed. l thought would try again.
I will write about the camel.
The camel is from seven to eight feet
in height. His body is covered Will,
rough hair. His legs are short: his
neck is long and slender. His hump
gets smaller and smaller when he is
long without food. The camel is found
in parts of Asia and Africa. The
Arabian camel has one hump; the 9TH
ers have two.
and for carrying loads. He Is as use
full to the Arab as the horse. COW and
sheep are to us.
