About the Book

CCBC's Best Books for Kids & Teens, 2008 Kas fights to conceal her dangerous secret. Kas has everything a teenager could possibly want. Away from home for the first time, and attending a prestigious art school, she makes friends with a model and aspiring actress, Marin, and meets Jacob, a handsome young musician. Her future is bright and promising. But Kas is hiding a secret_a secret so dangerous that it threatens to destroy not only her friendships, but also her own future. Diane Tullson has written a powerful, coming-of-age novel about eating disorders, and of the vulnerable teenager who fights to conceal her secret from her friends. Zero is a realistic portrayal of a very subtle disease that challenges readers to figure out just when they should have recognized thesymptoms of anorexia and bulimia. The novel includes an afterword that outlines the warning signs of anorexia and bulimia, as well as the common misconceptions about the victims of eating disorders.

Review :
"Tullson offers an intense examination of a talented teen whose self-loathing runs wild and deep. . . The realistic ending offers a sliver of hope rather than conclusive healing. More than just a dissection of illness, the story also includes insights about making art and being part of an artistic community." -- "Booklist" "Tullson deftly portrays the teen as an intense perfectionist, subtly weaving in hints of her problem through the first half of the book, then blowing her character wide open as her eating disorders rage out of control." -- "The School Library Journal" "With a cover that may have readers expecting an outdoor survival story, Tullson brings alive a character struggling to endure different kinds of elements: those that lie within. . . "Zero" is an important story that is crafted in such a way that it is subtle and intense at the same time, while ultimately offering hope that Kat may find a level of self-acceptance." -- "KLIATT"
