About this listen

Award-winning children’s author Joan Holub has penned over 70 books for young audiences in her decades-spanning career. In Zero the Hero, Holub offers a humorous and lighthearted look at one of math’s most overlooked, yet essential, figures - the number zero. All the other numbers scoff at Zero’s value, but as soon as one of them gets into trouble, guess who lands on the scene to save the day?

Critic reviews

"A hero and some villains and good winning over evil…all wrapped in humor and tied with a comic bow - what could be better?" ( Kirkus Reviews)
