    I really appreciate you doing this reading of Bradbury. It's unnerving how many analogies could be drawn from this story to the technological perils of the modern day, and it's effect on the young adults and children of the current generations. You did a great service to The Veldt, both to the narration and the characters within.

    What I love about this story, is just how prophetic it is, essentially with the advent of gen alpha.

    Thank you so much 🙇 I had a reading assignment but, since English isn't my first language, reading would have taken me days. I get lost between the words while reading in a foreign language... Thank you again!

    Ty I also have a reading assignment for this tmrw and I love this because it helps me understand the text easier and I can read it quicker. Usually I would end up reading the same bit like 30 times over lol
