Bookroo's summary
Zero feels undervalued by the other numbers, who see him as useless in math operations. But when a numerical crisis arises, Zero seizes the chance to demonstrate his true value. Can he show the others that his talents are essential and save the day? Discover how Zero turns the tables and proves that sometimes, nothing can be everything.
From the publisher
Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. That’s what all the other numbers think of Zero. He doesn’t add anything in addition. He’s of no use in division. And don’t even ask what he does in multiplication. (Hint: Poof!) But Zero knows he’s worth a lot, and when the other numbers get into trouble, he swoops in to prove that his talents are innumerable.
