I’m currently re-reading Fahrenheit 451. I read it in my youth, but didn’t realize the depth of it then. I am falling in love with Bradbury’s writing style. He’s almost poetic at times.
Dandelion Wine is even more poetic than Fahrenheit 451. Bradbury advised aspiring writers to read everything they could get their hands on, and to include at least one poem a day.
Great quote. Love Bradbury.

I sure wouldn’t argue that. I’m interested in almost everything out there. I think because it helps us appreciate a little something called “Wonder.”
