About the book
Elizabeth isn't thrilled to be moving into the Frankenstein mansion, where her mother has just been hired as a governess. And she's not about to become friends with Victor, the family's young son, whose obsession with science borders on creepy and weird! Her passion lies in journalism and her pursuit of truth for the school newspaper. But everything changes the day the famous inventor Henry Clerval arrives to announce a science competition: the winner will be admitted to Ingolstadt, the most prestigious academy in the country! For Victor, it's the perfect opportunity. And he's ready to do anything to win - even conduct a strange experiment in the utmost secrecy... Intrigued and a little unnerved, Elizabeth senses a golden opportunity. But in investigating Victor, she will uncover a truth far more disturbing than anything she could have imagined! Featuring science on a truly epic scale, questions of right and wrong, and friendship amidst disagreements and quarrels, My Friend Frankenstein is a take on Mary Shelley's work with humor and wit like you've never read before.
