Drought is a condition that becomes when the average rainfall for a fertile area drops far below the normal amount for a long period of time. In area which are not irritated, the lack of rain causes farm crops to whither and dead. Higher than normal temperatures usually accompany periods of drought. They add to the crop damage . Forest fires start easily during drought. The soil of the drought area becomes dry and crumbles. Often the rich topsoil is blown away by the hot, dry winds.

 Long ago, a lot of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was just a light in the sky. And others thought it wad a big ball cheese!
 The telescopes were made. And men saw that the moon was really another world. They wondered what it was like. They dreamed of going there.
 On July 20, 1969, that dream came true. Two America men landed on the moon. Their names were Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin.
 The first thing the men found was that the moon is covered with dust. The dust is so thick that the men left footprints where they walked. Those were the first marks a living thing had ever made on the moon. And they could stay there for years and years. There is no wind or rain to wipe them off.
 The two men walked on the moon for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to earth for study. They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know. Then they climbed back into their moon landing craft.
