All Summer In A Day

All Summer in a Day is a short story by science fiction author Ray Bradbury. This story was originally published in 1959 in a Bradbury short story collection entitled, A Medicine for Melancholy. The story deals with a group of schoolchildren residing on an inhabited, tropical Venus at an unspecified future time. The thick atmosphere of venus still exists at this time, and it is constantly raining, so seeing the sun is a very rare event which occurs only every seven years. The events of the story describe the children's actions on the day that the sun was to appear for the first time in their lives.
