Would It Be Weird? is a playful dive into a child’s wild imagination, where every dinnertime question is a ticket to an absurd and funny “what if” scenario. From piano-mouths to alien makeovers, the kid’s zany ideas keep the story moving with energy and charm. Mom’s patient but hilarious responses add to the comedy, making it a perfect blend of childlike wonder and parental realism.

What I loved most about this children’s book is how vividly it captures the endless curiosity of kids. The idea of dinosaurs taking kids to school and making them always on time (but ruining picture day) made me laugh. It’s these little touches that show author Edgar Garcia really gets how kids think. I also love how the book taps into universal childhood questions. Who hasn’t imagined fighting giant chicken pirates or being a dragon with a sweet tooth?

Mariano Epelbaum’s art truly shines in this picture book. It’s bright and lively and just an explosion of energy and detail that pulls you into every wild scenario. I loved how the emotions on everyone’s faces were so expressive and spot-on. What really stood out to me was how the illustrations perfectly captured what made each moment funny. It matches the whimsical and fun tone of the story perfectly. This attention to detail is what makes the book feel like a mini-adventure on every page. Epelbaum takes these absurd “what if” questions and brings them to life with so much humor and charm. It’s impossible not to get swept up in the silliness when the art makes the scenarios feel so vibrant.

The back-and-forth between the young girl and Mom is pure gold. Mom’s deadpan humor steals the show, especially when she calmly suggests finding a piano-fixing dentist or bringing a cat to scare mummies. The balance of her exasperation and indulgence in her child’s silliness is funny and heartwarming.

Would It Be Weird? is a perfect pick for kids with wild imaginations and parents who’ve heard it all. It’s funny, charming, and brilliantly illustrated. I’d recommend it for bedtime reading, classroom storytime, or any kid who loves to ask, “What if?” It’s a little weird, a lot wonderful, and is guaranteed to make you laugh.
