Insects

All insects have 6 legs but only one knee, which links the insect's head to its thorax, in place of a neck. Some biologists call this a kneeck, especially in Scotland.

Insects can see into the future using tiny magic telescopes. They can also eat more pot noodle than you can shake a stick at.

If you want to see some insects in action, good examples look out for are the fly, the swim, the Beatle, the earwig and the eyehat.
