However, its neck is shorter than a giraffe’s neck. What is it?
It’s an okapi.

Okapis live in African rainforests. They are herbivores. They use

their long tongues to pull leaves from the trees. They don’t need
long necks because they don’t eat leaves from tall trees.

This animal lays eggs, but it isn’t a reptile. It has a beak like
a duck, but it isn’t a bird. It is a very strange animal. Its feet
are like a duck’s feet and it has got a big, wide tail. It can
sting you with its feet! What is it? It’s a platypus.

Platypuses are mammals and they live in Australia. They

live on land and in water. They use their tails to swim and
they find their food in the water. They are carnivores. They
eat insects, fish and worms.

Do you know…?
Only two types of mammals lay eggs.
The other one is the echidna. The
echidna lives in Australia, too.

Madame Tussauds
If you go to Madame Tussauds in London, you can meet nearly four hundred famous
people. You can stand next to them and touch them! However, they are not real.
They are models and they are made of wax.
You can see politicians like Barack Obama, singers like Britney Spears and footballers
like David Beckham. You can also see famous people from history like Albert Einstein
the scientist, and Pablo Picasso the artist. Lots of people visit the models of Prince
William and his wife Kate Middleton.
It takes about four months to make a Madame Tussauds model and it costs about
£150,000! Usually, about twenty artists and sculptors work together to make the
model. Some famous people give their clothes to Madame Tussauds for their models
to wear.
The original Madame Tussauds is in London, but now you can see Madame Tussauds
models in thirteen other cities around the world, including New York, Amsterdam and
Bangkok.

The Queen’s castles

Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain has got lots of homes. When she is in London,
she lives at Buckingham Palace, but did you know she has got two castles, too?
Windsor Castle Balmoral Castle

William the Conqueror invaded England in 1066. Then he was the King of England. He
constructed a wooden castle near London. Now there is a stone castle there. It is called
Windsor Castle. Windsor Castle is very big. It has got about 1,000 rooms.
Windsor Castle is very popular with tourists. Every year, more than 1,000,000 people visit
the castle.
Queen Victoria visited Balmoral in Scotland in 1842. She loved it. There was a house there,
but Queen Victoria and her husband wanted a castle. They constructed Balmoral Castle.
Now it is the private home of Queen Elizabeth II and her family. They live there from August
to October.
About 85,000 tourists visit Balmoral every year, but they can’t visit the castle in August,
September or October because that’s when the Queen is there.

The Royal Standard

When the Queen is at home at Buckingham Palace, or in one of
her castles, you can see this flag. It is called the Royal Standard.
It is red, blue and yellow. On the flag there are seven lions and a
yellow harp.

THE GREAT FIRE OF LONDON

Would you like to be a firefighter?
Firefighting is a dangerous job,
but it can be exciting, too.
350 years ago in London, there
weren’t any firefighters. On 2nd
September 1666, a fire started in a
bakery. It moved quickly to other
buildings because it was a windy
day and because there were lots of
wooden houses in the city. Wood
burns quickly.
The people who lived near the bakery used water to fight the
fire. They carried the water in buckets. They also pulled buildings
down to try to stop the fire. This picture shows people in
London fighting the fire.
The fire continued to burn. It was huge and it burned for about
five days. It destroyed 13,200 houses and 87 small churches. It
also destroyed St Paul’s Cathedral. Today, you can visit St Paul’s
Cathedral, but it is a ‘new’ one – it is only about 300 years old.
Today, there are thousands of firefighters in the UK. Most
of them are men, but women can be firefighters, too. All
firefighters wear helmets and special clothes that protect them
from fire. This photo shows three firefighters wearing special
clothes and helmets.
