Picture Book Review: Best Test

Best Test

5 out of 5 stars

The animals find a delicious strawberry, but begin to quarrel over who will eat it. They put together a race to see who is the “best”, and the winner will get the strawberry. They devise different obstacles and tests for the race. Frog wants a hopping obstacle. Mouse is good at coloring and wants a coloring test. They also have to guess what is in a mystery bag, and make the best funny face.
As they go through the different challenges, some of the animals struggle. But their friends stop to help them through each task. They all cross the finish line together, holding paws. They never do discover who is the “best”, but they do become best friends!

This book is so adorable! I literally said, “Aaawwwww!” when I got to the part where the animals have a group hug at the end. It’s just so cute!!

I love the beautiful illustrations! The artwork is fuzzy and soft with warm colors. I love the adorable designs for each of the animal characters.
