In this one-of-a-kind book the complex and fascinating world of urban public transit is
explored using five different characters' journeys through the imaginary city of Zoom. From the
Zanies a family of street performers to Agent Theodore Rybka a spy on a very secret mission
to Robbie a seven-year-old boy visiting the city for the first time the characters are quirky
and full of personality. On this particular morning they are all headed downtown from
different locations but they all end up in the same place at the same time.
