What If... Pigs Could Fly?

What If... Pigs Could Fly? by Emma Young is a funny, fact-packed kids’ science book that turns the animal kingdom into 33 irresistible questions. From “What if snakes were fluffy?” to “What if skunks sprayed perfume?”, each chapter starts with a wild idea and then unpacks the real biology behind it in a way that’s genuinely readable and surprisingly smart.

Young moves across sharks, spiders, bats, bears and more, mixing clear explanations with humour and bite-sized science facts that invite curious minds to keep flipping pages. Lively animal photography and quirky illustrations make it easy to browse, whether you read it cover to cover or dip in at random.

Perfect for primary-school readers, animal lovers, and reluctant readers who prefer short bursts of non-fiction, it’s also a great pick for classrooms and family sharing. Add it to your shelf and let the weird questions spark new curiosity.
