Zazu a monkey living in the subrubs of a desert, was fascinated by the vast desert. Zazu dreamed about wandering in the desert and finding some treasures. The monkey wanted to become the first monkey to travel the desert.
One day, Zazu was resting on the top of a tree, after having bananas. He noticed a stranger roaming around under the tree. On the back of that animal, there was a big hump. It was a camel.
“Hey, stop there. I have not seen here before,” Zazu said to the camel. The camel looked up and saw Zazu. He smiled at Zazu.
“I am a camel. I live in the desert. I am running away from my masters, who are traders. They ride on me to the length and breadth of the desert,” said the camel.
“Ah, I see. I am Zazu, a monkey living in this forest. I was looking for a person like you. Can you take me for a trip around the desert?” Zazu asked.
“Sure, I have no problem. But are you prepared to withstand the hot sun and desert storm?” asked the camel.
“Yes, I am. Please take me to the desert,” the excited Zazu asked the camel.
The next day, the camel took the monkey to the desert. Zazu saw how vast the desert was. He was excited to see the desert. Occasionally, he got down from the back of the camel to run around and then again climbed to the camel back.
It was the middle of the day. The scorching sun was flaming with fury. Zazu was exhausted.
“I want to go home,” he cried.
“But going back will be a risk because you are already exhausted,” said the camel.
“Am I going to die in the desert?” asked the monkey.
“No, I won’t let that happen. This desert is my home, and I know everyting about this desert. Don’t worry, I will take you to a place where you can drink plenty of water and eat something,” said the camel.
After walking for a while, they reached an Oasis. An oasis in the middle of the desert is a welcome break for desert travelers. There was a small stream of water flowing silently. The monkey got down from the camel and drank from the stream as much as he could and ate some fruits. He was happy.
The next day, the camel took Zazu back to the forest. The monkey was happy again. Back home, he was the first monkey who went to the desert and returned. All the other monkeys gathered around him to listen to his desert adventure.
