“ALL SUMMER IN A DAY”

"This short story is about a group of children living on Venus, a planet that only experiences sunlight for two hours once every seven years. Margot is from Earth and is the only child who has a memory of sunlight, and her longing to experience it again sets her apart from her peers. It is only after the other children feel the joy of sunlight and the sadness at losing it that they realize how cruel they were for ostracizing Margot. However, this lesson is learned too late."
