Essay Writing - All Summer In A Day
All Summer in a Day
Ray Bradbury
Last week we worked on finding themes in the novels you have chosen to use for your literary analysis essays. You also looked for author's craft
and story parts to show the theme.
Today we are ready to draft the essay. When essayists get ready to write, they often use other people's essays
to help them make a plan, to remind them of what they have learned before, and to set new goals. Today we are going to begin the drafting process by looking at someone else's writing so we can strengthen our own.
Ray Bradbury's dystopian story, "All Summer in a Day," takes place on Venus - a planet where it rains all the time. Margot, a recent arrival on Venus, remembers what the other children cannot. She remembers the warmth of the sun and how beautiful sunshine can be. Margot is grieving the loss of the sun. The other children are jealous she even remembers the sun. One lesson the story suggests is when people can't get over their own pain, they sometimes end up hurting others.

From the very beginning, the details in the story show the children's pain. They are painfully jealous because Margot has seen the sun and they have not. Bradbury describes how Margot stood apart from them, from these children who could never remember a time when there wasn't rain and rain and rain. "They were all nine years old, and if there had been a day, seven years ago, when the sun came out for an hour and showed its face to the stunned world, they could not recall." This line shows Margot, it turns out, lived on Earth once, and she has seen the sun. The other children have not, and she makes their world of dreary rain even more painful to them.
