Just like the other books in this charming series for children, this biography about author Mary Shelley focuses on her childhood and how her first success - writing "Frankenstein" - came about. The illustrations are all very fitting.

I just wondered if young children - the target group for this book - have even heard about "Frankenstein" at all. Mine haven't, and I'm not likely to read it to them anytime soon. But on the other hand is this book not about Frankenstein, but about "Little People having Big Dreams", and working hard to make these dreams come true.
