A great part of Arabia is desert. Here there is nothing but sand and rock. The sand is so
hot that you cannot walk over it with your bare feet in the day time. Here and there in the desert
are springs of water that come from deep under the ground ? so deep that the sun cannot dry them
up. These springs are few and far apart, but wherever there is one, green grass very soon covers
the ground all around it. Soon fig trees and palm trees grow tall and graceful, making a cool,
shady place around the spring. Such a place is called an oasis.
The Arabs who are not in the cities live in the desert all the year round. They live in tents
that can be put up and taken down very easily and quickly, so that they can move from one oasis
to another, seeking grass and water for their sheep, goats, camels and horses. These desert Arabs
eat ripe, sweet figs and also the dates that grow on the palm trees; they dry them too and use them
as food all the year round.
These Arabs have the finest horses in the world. An Arab is very proud of his riding he
loves his wife and children. He never puts heavy loads upon his horse, and often lets him stay in
the tent with his family.
