Recently I have faced problem in using work and works. If I consider each worksheet as a piece (countable), can I write-
'I am considering this as one of your best works'?

We use work countably when we're referring to a large, complete item of some kind: Beethoven's Fifth Symphony is one of the most important works of Western classical music.
