Numbers have power... and consequences.

An ordinary schoolboy, Edwin struggles to solve his school math problems. Then he meets the Arithmetic Fairy: a radiant, terrifying, utterly fabulous being cloaked in calculus and crowned with equations.

In this whimsical blend of fantasy and logic from the beloved author of The Railway Children, a single curly R—the rare sign of a correct answer—launches a whirlwind of mathematical mischief and magical mayhem.

For readers who love math, hate math, or suspect it might be alive.
