This week we\u2019re continuing our little foray into the world of classic science fiction.\xa0

The New York Times dubbed Ray Bradbury, \u201cThe writer most responsible for bringing modern science fiction into the literary mainstream\u201d. While he wrote chiefly in the realm of speculative fiction, he also worked in other genres, including horror, mystery, and coming of age fiction.\xa0

His best-known works include the novel Fahrenheit 451, his collections of short stories, The Martian Chronicles and The Illustrated Man, and the speculative horror novel Something Wicked This Way Comes.

Today\u2019s story was first published in the pulp magazine, Thrilling Wonder Stories, in October 1948.\xa0

And now, The Square Pegs, by Ray Bradbury.\xa0
