How The Camel Got His Hump

Joseph Rudyard Kipling is one of the greatest English writers. Kipling’s most popular works include The Jungle Book, Gunga Din, Kim and Mandalay. How the Camel got his Hump was first published in 1898 in St Nicholas Magazine. This is a story of an animal Camel, who didn’t want to work for Man at all. The Horse, the Dog and the Ox all asked him to join their work, but his only answer was “Humph”. Then they came to the Man and complained. The Man answered that he was sorry but they had to work longer hours to make up for it. In the desert they met Djinn and complained to him. Djinn came to the Camel and told him to work, but his answer was “Humph” as always. Then Djinn decided to use Magics. What happened to the Camel then? It is not hard to guess.
