Beneath the northern lights, across the silent ice, walks the loneliest figure in all of literature, and all he has ever wanted is to be loved.
Told in gentle rhyming verse by Rory Noelle after Mary Shelley's original 1818 novel, Frankenstein introduces little ones to the tender heart beneath the legend: a gentle creature who wakes into a world of moonlight and birdsong, secretly leaves firewood for a family he has come to love, learns to read by moonlight, and finds, at last, one old man who sees him with his heart. It's a story of longing and kindness that ends with a lesson for every reader: see with your heart, little one, and be kind.
Painted in moody midnight blues, glacial silvers, and soft stitched purples, with warm candlelight saved for the moments of love, this keepsake board book is a first encounter with one of the most beloved classics ever written, and a quiet reminder that every heart deserves a hand to hold.
A perfect gift for little readers, and for the literary parents and grandparents who love them.
Crafted with extra-durable 1/16" thick chipboard pages and a child-friendly matte laminated finish, this board book is built to withstand enthusiastic toddler handling while remaining beautiful enough to be a lifelong keepsake.
