My name is Reem. I am in the 9th grade. These are my cousins riding their horses. They like their horses and for that they decorate them with bright colors that they asked their mothers to do for them. They are going to join their friends for a race far away from where we live. The horses are so expensive especially if they are originally Arabic known horses. In wedding, my cousins race the other horses and dance on the music too. They are proud of their horses and they take care of them a lot.

The Arabian horses are famous throughout the world for their beauty, grace and speed. The equally famous English racehorses were originally bred from 6 Arab stallions. Bedouins are very proud of their horses and they treat them as one of the family members. For many years horses were used for defense during the frequent inter-tribal fights. The different breeds have different names and different origins. The Bedouins have created many songs about the horse which describe their beauty and fitness and the young men always talk about their horses with great pride. The horses are very loyal to the person who feeds them, cares for them rides them.

My Camel

My name is Moath. My pet is the camel. The camel is big. He eats grass. The camels drink lots of water. I like the camel because I drink from them the milk. its milk is so delicious. I drink it directly from the camel. The milk can't be poiled and if it is poiled it will not be tasty.My camels' color is brown. It lives in the desert. It is also so expensive.  Many Bedouin have camels at home.

We are Rana, Rasha and Rowayda and we want to tell you more about the camels.

 Some people don’t ride a bus or train.They ride a camel! People who live in the desert ride camel. Camels are good animals for the desert. They keep water in their bodies. They can go 17 days without water. Camels have fat in there hemps. When they don’t have food, camels use the fat.

These are my chickens. We have them at home. We take their eggs every day. The cock takes care of its hens and protects them. We sometimes play with them and run after them. There are also ducks but I like the chickens more. They are tasty when my mother cook them in the oven or in makluba (rice, vegetables and chicken)
