In the short story All Summer in a Day, Ray Bradbury uses symbolism to show the reader the children’s emotions. The sun they always are talking about symbolizes happiness. The only time the children are really happy is when the sun comes out. It could be argued that there is good examples of description in this story. But I feel the symbolism is more prominent. The constant storms on venus show the sadness and anger the students feel. The storms are raging right up until the sun comes out. Symbolism is shown throughout All Summer in a Day. In All Summer in a Day the sun symbolizes happiness. The sun shows the happiness the kids feel. Such as when they finally lock margot away then become happy because she was causing them to be sad. The sun
Imagine living without the sun, the sun that gives off warmth and happiness for many people. Tom and Lily have not seen the sun in countless years. The setting illustrates what Tom, Lily and all the citizens are missing now that it has been gone for many years. The dress will symbolize the sunshine and happiness that has been lost ever since the nuclear bomb. The characterization focuses on Tom and Lily and how they are the dynamic characters to show that when something slips away from someone, they will do anything to get it back.

In All Summer In A Day, Ray Bradbury uses two different types of author's craft. These two types of author’s craft are symbolism and descriptive language, they are used to show the need for children’s freedom. The first example of author’s craft is symbolism. The author uses the depressing rain and the sun as symbolism because it shows the relationship between Margot and the students. One possible counter claim is imagery. The dark forest is the example of imagery. It grows up and then gets crushed by the rain over and over again. The last example of author's craft in All Summer In A Day is descriptive language. Ray Bradbury uses the sun as descriptive language. Margot says it’s like a fire, in a stove. It’s like a penny, it’s hot and shiney. Symbolism and Descriptive
Everyone longs for something in life, whether it was for a puppy or a raise at work. In the case of Margot and the other children in all summer in a day by ray bradbury what they are longing for is the sun which is showed by using simile, descriptive language and metaphors.Ray Bradbury uses similes and metaphors to show how the children and Margot really do miss the sun. One example of this is when Margot writs a poem about the sun. Even with this fact, some people still believe that the author's main craft is symbolism, but they clearly don't see that the author's main crafts are similes, metaphors and descriptive language. Descriptive language is also a big part of the author's craft because it describes what is so desirable about the sun to these children. For example, he uses a lot of descriptive language to describe the sun and children when the sun first comes out. That is why I think the author's main crafts are similes, descriptive language and metaphors.

“All Summer in a Day,” is a short story written by Ray Bradbury and I believe that it’s theme can be interpreted to be effects of the past. This is because on the main character’s new home planet, Venus, where it rains constantly, her memories from Earth of the sun, something the other children in her class desperately wish to experience, cause her some strife with her classmates. Because of the problems caused by her memories, this is where the possible theme, “effects of the past” come into play.
Theme is something that most people take for granted. It’s often seen as something elementary. But, there is greatness in such simplicity that isn’t really that simplistic at all. Such is proven in Ray Bradbury's All Summer in a Day where one of the many themes is that the knowledge you have can sometimes set you apart from others in unpleasant ways such as not being able to connect with someone on a personal level, being marked as an outcast, and not being taken seriously.
