We'll start today by reading one more story from Ray Bradbury: "A Sound of Thunder."
After you read the story, please go to your blog and create a new post with answers to these questions:
- Who is the protagonist? Who is the antagonist?
- How does the point of view from which the story is told affect your understanding of it?
- Why are the time travelers told to "stay on the Path?" What is "the path"? What could happen if a traveler goes off the path or steps on a mouse, for example?
- The narrator uses the phrase "A sound of thunder," several times in this story. What is the sound of thunder being referenced?
- What point might the author be making with this story? What other potential themes are there?
