with Percy Bysshe Shelley. They lived in

but the baby died. Later they married.

where died two of her children, just lived

one son. Her husband drowned in his ship.

Mary returned England, she only stayed

with her son and wrote her book . Finally

she was very ill and she died at age 53.

Mary Shelley and her husband went

some days to they friend Lord Bryon’s

house. There they listened horror

storys. They did a challenge: they had

to write a horror story.

monster. She wrote about this creature.

She was inspirated by Erasmus Darwin,

dead body, this body will be alive.
