How The Camel Got His Hump | 'Just So' Stories

This classic 'Just So' story explains how the lazy Camel got his distinctive hump at the beginning of the world. Refusing to help the Horse, Dog, and Ox with their work and only ever saying "Humph!", the Camel angers the other animals and is eventually confronted by the Djinn (genie) in charge of the desert. As a magical consequence for his idleness and dismissive attitude, the Djinn gives the Camel a large "humph" on his back, explaining it will allow him to work for days without eating to make up for the time he missed, serving as a humorous fable about the negative results of laziness and the importance of doing one's share.
