Overview

This book is about the number Six who, in a desperate attempt to be the most popular number in town, tries to resemble Nine. However, Six soon realizes that it's not the ""look"" that counts, but the ""outlook"" that matters most. Using numerical anthropomorphisms, this book portrays the universe of numbers in a way that has never been done before. Each number has its own unique personality, character traits, and symbolism. At its core, this story teaches kids about kindness, family values, and how to be yourself. Life is really just about knowing who you are, and not trying to be like anyone else. That's the simple message of this story.
