1002 Arabian Nights
A long time ago, in a land far away, where the sun is beating down, every hour of the day.
There lived a young man, who was called Ali Jake and a very long trip he decided to take.
He wanted to go to some far away land. He had heard there was treasure hidden under the sand.
But his mother said ”Please Ali Jake do not go, in the desert are dangers that you do not know.
Don’t go own
your own, take a friend!”
“Yeah! Take me! Ali Milo!”
They rode through the day and they rode through the night. All the while there was nothing but desert in sight.
Then Ali Jake saw, all alone on the sand, two princesses walking along hand in hand.
They were hungry and tired, they’d been walking all day. They were utterly lost. They could not find their way.
“Greetings princesses!”
“Hello, who are you?”
“I’m Ali Jake and this is Ali
Milo.”
“Yeah and we’ve come to rescue
you!”
They walked through the day and they walked through the night. All the while there was nothing but desert in sight.
“Hey everyone,! Look over there! It’s an oasis!”
The tree will give shade from the terrible heat and there’s water sweet water and fruit we can eat.
“Ooh what’s happening? The oasis is
going!”
“We’ve got to keep going! Come on
everyone we can do it!”
Onward they walked, friends hand in hand, through mountains and valleys all made of sand.
Then straight ahead, as clear as can be, Ali Jake saw a single palm tree.
“Water!”
“The water is the wonderful
treasure!”
