Math books are hard to find. But this is a good one, it is not the best i have seen but it does get the point across to the students, although some find it a bit confusing at first.
The author's idea of humanizing numbers with feelings and giving them feelings allows the reader to empathize with the plight of zero and delight in him finally finding a place to feel useful and special in many levels.
I use this book with K-2nd graders to introduce the properties of zero in a story-like manner. The illustrations are colorful and bold, the text is appropriate for this age group, and they creatively include all the properties of zero in the story. My only criticism is that unlike outstanding math concept books such as Demi's One Grain of Rice and Anno's Mysterious Multiplying Jar, it isn't as fun for an adult to read aloud, being a bit forced in areas. This limits the book to a younger age group. But for this age group, it is outstanding, I have read it aloud repeatedly to my own children.
Really helped my kindergarteners understand zero and how important zero is where ever he shows up.
The story is pretty long and didn't hold the interest of second graders.
