In book number three, Book of Best Words, Jazz's big brother offers homework help with inventive interpretations of a seemingly soulless A, B, C assignment. Jazz is inspired by her brother to tackle her homework in a most singular manner. Full of exuberance, Book of Best Words is sure to stretch the reader's linguistic aptitude. Spattered with irreverence and touched with ingenuity, this illustrated series featuring Jazz and her older brother has the feel of an instant classic. Gratefully, Laura Teste, in her author-illustrator debut, has included tongue-in-cheek nods to the lucky adults in the room. For the inquisitive-can't-sit-still children, her series is sure to capture their attention and whet their appetite for more. Laura Teste perfectly blends the alphabet, words, family bonding, and rhyming. Jazz and her brother bounce ideas off each other and use their wit to come up with the craziest words. I loved their banter and adorable personalities. The illustrations are comical, depicting the two with joyful faces and imaginative ideas. By the end of the book, the two manage to come up with words for the list, but the homework is not yet done. I cannot wait to read more. Brilliant work. -- Reviewed by Luwi Nyakansaila for Readers' Favorite
