In Kay's Anatomy you'll find out:
Why your skin gets wrinkly in the bath
Whether bogies are safe to eat
How much of your life you will spend on the toilet
And loads more fascinating facts you can wow (and horrify) your parents and teachers with.

Doctors made patients gargle with wee
A washing machine, a can of beans and some sausages helped save lives
