I just read this as an adult a few weeks ago actually. Pretty dope thing to have read in class but I can see how it would make a lasting impression

I mean I loved it. We also got to read some ray bradbury and Isaac Asimov in that semester.

Asimov in school is a true power move, hell yeah. I did *read Bradbury's Farenheit 451 and that book changed my (literary) life as a kid. My school was christian so good literature was few and far between

I'm jealous of anyone who got to do bradbury in class. I did a book report on him but there was no class discussion. I just reread Kaleidoscope the other day, one of my faves. Actually most stuff from The Illustrated Man was dope.

Oh we just read The Veldt, which was a bomb ass short story to get to read in grade 7.

That's a great one. Maybe it's time to reread the bradbury anthology collection I have. Some of his work can be a total brain bender

Yeah it was great for me because from grade four on I was super into reading horror and sci fi, and when we got to read them in class and all my friends also had to read it I got to talk about it with people.
