The short story All Summer in a Day by Ray Bradbury depicts the consequences of jealousy. They were not able to think straight because jealousy took over them. Emotions get taken over by jealousy. The idea that they were in fact thinking straight‚ and this was a case of bullying can be proven wrong. They had ended up regretting their choice afterward. They wouldn’t have wanted the consequences without jealousy. Jealousy led them to do something against their wishes. Jealousy leads people to do harmful

In this quote Bradbury really tries to personify nature into a more technological feature‚ giving it not only more humanistic quality but modernizing them to fit a radio in this futuristic era.

I think a recurring theme in “All Summer in a Day” by Ray Bradbury is faith. The story revolves around faith or lack thereof. The children act out and shun Margot because they’re afraid to have faith. On the contrary‚ Faith is all Margot has. The entire storyline happens the way it does is because of their struggles with faith.
