Product Description
by Laura Teste (Author)
In the first of this series, Jazz's older brother plays the straight man during the evening's antics in Book of Bad Manners. Jazz and her Uncle Mark one up each other's bad manners during Uncle Mark's dinner while her older brother stews over the full report expected by their mom. Culminating in the best worst bad manner, this book is sure to be either the most refreshing or most raucous story on the bookshelf.
Fed on a steady diet of The Far Side and odd engineering projects, Laura Teste bundles her broad interests into a series of children's picture books. She is currently living the life of an artist in Michigan. Her foray into writing was initially to fulfill the family obligation of a homemade Christmas gift.
I can confidently promise that you cannot imagine all the bad manners displayed by the characters in this short book Jazz's brother is the narrator of this story, written in a poetic form with vividly descriptive words and impressive end rhymes. I must mention the beautiful and colorful illustrations that gave life to the story and characters. In addition to its other commendable features, the plot was simply ingenious. I enjoyed this story greatly and recommend Book of Bad Manners by Laura Teste to all young readers. -- Reviewed by Ann Linus for Readers' Favorite (Five Stars)
