«El diablo de los números» is the young adult novel by Hans Magnus Enzensberger, published by Ediciones Siruela in paperback (259 pages, in Spanish).
Robert hates mathematics, but one night he dreams of a small devil who sets out to show him that numbers can be fascinating. Over twelve nights, the little devil reveals paradoxes, number sequences, and increasingly surprising systems, and Robert discovers that mathematics hides a mysterious, almost magical life.
Includes illustrations by Rotraut Susanne Berner and is part of the Las Tres Edades collection (no. 57) from Siruela.
For readers aged 8 to 88, especially those who distrust mathematics and seek a playful, narrative approach.
