by Laura Teste (Author)
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.
In book two of the series, Book of Bad Bargains, Jazz tries to convince her older brother to trade his beloved blue marble with increasingly peculiar bargains. Readers - quite possibly even adult readers - are introduced to a curious range of trinkets. Deceptively down-to-earth drawings have Easter eggs including maps in Klingon and a key from a DeLorean.
