It's Saturday! An exciting day has arrived. "Are you ready for the big race, Dad?" I asked, bouncing on my toes. "I can't wait to see the camels!" The sun shone bright, and the air buzzed with thrill as we headed to the races.

At the stadium, camels were easy to spot. Their brown fur shone in the sunlight, adorned with fluffy hair. I spotted a cute camel with long legs and big eyes. She was the prettiest of them all. "Look at that one!" I pointed excitedly. Dad smiled, nodding, "That must be a good racer!"

The announcer's voice boomed: "Welcome to the annual camel race!" The crowd cheered, and I felt a spark of excitement in my belly. I could hardly wait for the race to begin. "Which camel are we cheering for?" I asked Dad. "The one called Farha," he replied.

As the race began, the camels dashed down the track. Dust flew everywhere, and they ran so fast! I shouted, "Go, Farha, go!" But poor Farha suddenly stopped in the middle of the track. "Come on, Farha!" I pleaded, waving my arms.

I had an idea! I noticed Dad munching on a peach. "Dad, can I have that peach?" I asked eagerly. He handed it to me, a curious look on his face. I hopped on my bike, pedaling as fast as I could towards Farha. Would she see the peach?

As I reached Farha, her big eyes sparkled when she spotted the peach in my hand. "Look, Farha!" I called out. Just then, as if she understood, Farha leaped into action again. She dashed after me, her legs moving swiftly!

"Yes! Go, Farha!" I shouted, laughing as I pedaled alongside her. The crowd roared with excitement as Farha sprinted down the track, faster than ever!

Just as they approached the finish line, I shouted, "You can do it, Farha!" And with a burst of energy, Farha rushed ahead, crossing the line in first place. Everyone cheered loudly!

I jumped off my bike and ran to Farha. I held out the peach, and her nose sniffed it curiously. "Here you go, Farha! You did it!" I exclaimed happily. She looked so proud and munching the peach made her even happier.

"Well done, Farha! You were amazing!" Dad hugged me tightly. I could feel the thrill of the race still in my heart. Today was special, and I would never forget the day Farha became a champion!
