Publisher's Summary

Share the spine-chilling tale of Frankenstein with young listeners in this fun chapter book! Perfectly spooky, beginners will explore the balance between technology and humanity in this adaptation of Mary Shelley’s classic novel.

With just the right amount of scary for spooky little listeners, children can delight in the fascinating horror story of Victor Frankenstein.

On a stormy summer evening two centuries ago, Mary Shelley wrote the classic tale about a scientist and his monstrous creation. After Victor Frankenstein discovers the secret to life and uses it to build an eight-foot-tall monster, he realizes he's made a creature that he can't take care of—or control! Frankenstein and the monster chase each other across Europe, along the way learning lessons about ambition and heartbreak, the effects of technology on our lives, judging others based on looks, and the healing powers of nature.

This just-for-kids retelling of Mary Shelley's classic Frankenstein:

  • Is an abridged, child-friendly version of Mary Shelley's novel
  • Is perfect for homeschooling, school book challenges, and beginning book explorers
  • Has just enough spookiness
