It highlights Mary Shelley’s 18-year-old idea that a scientist could build a living creature, later published as Frankenstein (1818).

That was 1816, a year so strange that people called it \"the year without a summer. \" A huge volcano had erupted far away, throwing so much ash into the sky that the weather turned upside down across the world. Stuck indoors near Lake Geneva in Switzerland, a small group of friends needed something to do.  \nTo pass those dark, stormy hours, one of the friends made a challenge: each person  \nshould write a ghost story. Among them was a young woman named Mary Shelley, and she was only 18 years old at the time. For a while, she could not think of anything, which must have felt frustrating. Then, one night, an idea crept into her mind about a scientist who builds a living creature.  \nThat creepy idea grew into a whole book, and in 1818 it was published as \"Frankenstein. \" Here is something that trips people up even today: Frankenstein is the name of the scientist, not the monster. The scientist, Victor Frankenstein, stitches together a creature and brings it to life using the science of his day. So the next time someone calls the tall, green monster \"Frankenstein,\" you can gently set them straight.  \nBecause the story used science instead of magic to make its wonders happen, many people call it one of the first science fiction novels. Instead of witches or spells, Mary imagined electricity and laboratories doing the impossible. That was a fresh idea in her time, when most spooky tales leaned on ghosts and curses. Later books, movies, and comics about robots, clones, and mad inventors owe a little something to that rainy summer.  \nThe book does more than give you chills, though; it also asks a big question worth thinking about. When Victor creates his creature, he refuses to care for it, and everything goes terribly wrong. The story quietly wonders whether inventors are responsible for the things they bring into the world. Not bad for a story dreamed up by a teenager during the gloomiest summer in memory!  \nMary Shelley and Frankenstein  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What made the summer of 1816 so unusual?\u003Cbr>A.
