Product Description

How did math work before zero existed? A STEM nonfiction book that unpacks a fascinating history of a number we can't imagine our current world without.

From place value to being created and destroyed before being created again, zero has had quite a journey. Respected children's author and consummate researcher Sarah Albee lays out the history of zero alongside the complications that initially hampered its development, including Western imperialism.

A riveting nonfiction kids book with a playful feel, Zero! unravels a complicated history in tremendous detail.
