Publisher's summary
The world stands on the brink of the rocket age, and everyone is thrilled that humanity has attained this stunning achievement. But William Stanley isn’t convinced we should be here. Will he really stop the launch of this incredible rocket that he has helped to create?
Originally released in the spring edition of Planet Stories magazine in 1947, Ray Bradbury’s unbridled imagination created worlds and monsters that paved the way for a new generation of horror, fantasy, and science fiction. He was a master storyteller, a champion of creative freedom, and a space-age visionary. "Rocket Summer" is a bold example of a young writer who is destined for greatness.

Twelve-year-old Douglas Spaulding knows Green Town, Illinois, is as vast and deep as the whole world that lies beyond. It is a pair of new tennis shoes, the first harvest of dandelions for Grandfather's renowned intoxicant, the distant clang of the trolley bell on a hazy afternoon. But as young Douglas is about to discover, summer can be more than the repetition of established rituals that hold time at bay.
