The Veldt (Dramatized): Bradbury Thirteen: Episode 11 (Abridged) Audiobook

" One of my absolute favorite stories of all-time. Wonderfully crafted. It is chilling and honest, and warns and remembers. "

" I'm pretty sure there is a short film based on this. If not, then there is in my mind. Maybe I should produce it. I can't remember how many times I've read this story, in one collection or another, and each time I read it, it was better and better then the last. Another detail stood out, another reason for a character to do what they did. If I ever teach English again, or if I could ever teach psychology, this would be a story I'd like to use. "

" My all-time favorite short story. "

" It's surprising to me that as much as I dislike Sci-Fi, there are many Ray Bradbury books I actually like. This is one of them. I realize his lit is not exactly light reading, but I particularly liked the magic and adventure of the children in the veldt. "

" I read this in high school, one of the few Bradbury stories I remember vividly "

" How did he know where technology was going? How did he know that children would lose all sense of humanity because they have little to no physical contact during the formative years of life? Every time I read this, I am awestruck and saddened. "

" We read this in SAIL and I probably haven't been the same since. "

" other than this story, i hate ray bradbury....i loved this story though...idk what i like about it, but i would definitely recommend it "

" This is my favorite short story of all time, and I think I read it like 12 years ago. The final line of "A shadow flickered. Many shadows flickered." has stuck with me to this day. "

" A very effective short story. "

" This story saved me during my days as a substitute teacher. There was a movie made in the late 60's or early 70's with Jason Bateman that was hilarious. The story is appealing to people of all ages; a mild version of a Twilight Zone episode. "

" This story was creepy. "

" Typical Ray Bradbury. Futuristic and thought provoking. I like it. "

" Amazing story with strange yet moving approach. "

" Read it years ago, and just listened to an audio version a few days ago. So good, so creepy. "

" A tremendously well-written story, but I'm not sure whether the word to describe the actual story would be interesting, terrifying, or just plain old disturbing. Wow. As for rating... Definitely worthy of 4 or 5 stars, but I feel more like giving it more of a 3. Hmph. "

" i wish i could give this two and a half stars, i feel 50/50 about this short story, cleary Ray Bradbury was a master of words,but it made me feel uneasy, how kids could become so immeresed in technology, to the point of basicly murder. "

" Classic Bradbury. It seems that most of what I've read of him has to deal less with science and/or fiction than believably human figures struggling with technology. There are likely lessons here for all of us. "

" Ray Bradbury <3 I love you "

" I feel so scarred. But it was so awesome!!! "

" I had to read this for English class and wow in one word to some this book up I would say:CREEPY!!! Haha I get scared so easily and this book kind of freaked me out a little. "

" As always, Bradbury was ahead of his time with this story. "

" Wow! This was so well-written. The rich sensory language makes it impossible not to get completely transported into the story... while the ending was *slightly* predictable, I really liked it! Creepy! "

" Read this in high school for an interdisciplinary English/Physical Science course. Frightening. Handsome Boyfriend is egging me to get an 80" flat screen but I may make him read this first. "
