Could you envision a planet that sees no sun? In the story, “All Summer in a Day,” Ray Bradbury draws us in, as readers, with a story that takes place on the planet Venus.

Mercury The surface of Mercury is littered with craters. These craters are believed to have been created by collisions from debris. Mercurys' craters range from small circular craters to multi-ridged impact basin.

This crater has a diameter of approximately 1500 kilometres across and surprisingly resides

In the beginning of the story, it explains how the children are on Venus and it only rains, except from when the sun comes out for a few hours every seven years. Margot is different from the children and is constantly bullied for it, wishing to go back to Earth, despite resulting in the loss of thousands of dollars from their families. When the teacher leaves the room, the other children

Trials PROLOGUE Decades ago, scientist in the U.S had figured out how to genetically grow, literally grow dragons in a lab. At first they could only breathe fire and scorch metal into a liquid. Then several rare ones were bred with ice in their chests, letting them be able to freeze a human into a block of ice. Even without their fire and ice, the dragons were huge and powerful, ranging from forty to sixty feet long and fifteen to twenty feet tall while on all four legs. Their claws were around

Margot tells the other children
