by teachermama
Which title came first? I teach 7th grade English; our new textbook contains "The Naming of
Names," while the old one had "Dark They Were, And Golden Eyed."

This book is good, but it kind of scared me, which in this case, is maybe what Mr. Bradbury watned.
He wanted us to think about the Martians, as if their was a possibility of them actually being
there. I think it was a very fine short story and that, if you are looking for something to think
about, you should defiently read this book. :)

Walt Whitman, Ray Bradbury and I Sing the Body Electric' by the Weather Report. The connection
is the pharse I sing the Body Electric' its the opening line of an 1855 poem by Whitman, and
the title of a collection of short stories by Bradbury.

This is a good short story. It gets you to think about the future. It makes you realize how
people/human isn’t the greater raise. We aren't as great as we portray our selves to be.

Go on line or to the library. Find a list of auorths of science fiction. Read some of their work.
Pick a common theme. Illustrate (compare and contrast) how they deal with the theme or themes
you've chosen.

I saw Ray Bradbury at a presentation/speech he gave dunrig my undergrad years at U of Illinois. It
was amazing. And I understand where he's coming from it can be very evolutionary and/or Zen in
it's approach Ready, Fire, Aim, then repeat. I usually go to that approach when my primary
approach of everything in moderation isn't working so well
