"The Veldt" (1950) https://interestingliterature.com...y-analysis

I read that when I was 11–12. Others which blew my little mind were
"a sound of thunder" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_S...rov=sfti1#
and my #1, from The Martian Chronicles, "Night Meeting", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The...rov=sfti1# which gave little me an out-of-body experience.

I doubt Bradbury would hit as hard for today's kids. So much has happened, and his influence has been so wide and deep in popular culture for so long, permeating sci-fi and films-- they're not novel now. But in the early 70s, they stunned me and shaped my imagination.

Does it include the dystopian one about how we stopped reading books and just used portable Telescreens for everything?

Is there any way to actually find out what's included in the 100?

If you go to the amazon kindle version and click "read sample" you can look at the contents.

Looks like none of these are included.

If you search "Project Gutenberg" catalog, you can download almost all of Bradbury's novels (along with other great classics) as they are now in public domain and free to download. You can download them in PDF, mobi or epub formats.

You can possibly find similar books as auidobook format in librivox (of course, free).

I could not put any links as Slickdeals remove them, but you can easily find both sites.

Hope this would be helpful!

Incorrect. That is an entirely different book with an entirely different set of short-stories. The listed book on sale is: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/B...ated_Tales

The Fahrenheit 451 joke went sailing above a few heads in this forum.
