A book about numbers 0-9. I probably had this book earlier but the first read-throughs of my own I remember were at 4. It already started with a banger, "0 is not nothing 0 is a number", a sentence I have since quoted to my software developer colleagues on multiple relevant occasions. I loved the book so much that even more than 30 years later I remember it by heart.
