When Zero leaves, the town fills up with too much something! Will Zero return in time to save the city?... Zero is in charge of checking all of the nothing in town but the other numbers think very little of him. Fed up, Zero packs all his nothing and takes a much needed vacation. When Number City is overrun with something of everything, they cry out for our hero who swiftly sets about zeroing out all of the mayhem. Children will learn the concept of zero. Specifically, zero as a good and important thing; a positive lack of existence. This book also lays the foundations for the use of zero in computer science and other engineering related fields.
