Mood Passages from "All Summer in a Day"
#1. p105-106: "Margot stood alone. She was a very frail girl who looked as if
she had been lost in the rain for years and the rain had washed out the blue
from her eyes and the red from her mouth and the yellow from her hair. She was
an old photograph dusted from an album, whitened away, and if she spoke at all
her voice would be a ghost. Now she stood, separate, staring at the rain and
the loud wet world beyond the huge glass."

#2. p107: "They surged about her, caught her up and bore her, protesting, and
then pleading, and then crying, back into a tunnel, a room, a closet, where
they slammed and locked the door. They stood looking at the door and saw it
tremble from her beating and throwing herself against it. They heard her
muffled cries. Then, smiling, they turned and went out and back down the
runnel, just as the teacher arrived."

#3 p108: "The children lay out, laughing, on the jungle mattress, and heard it
sigh and squeak under them, resilient and alive. They ran among the trees,
they slipped and fell, they pushed each other, they played hide-and-seek and
tag, but most of all they squinted at the sun until tears ran down their
faces, they put their hands up to that yellowness and that amazing blueness
and they breathed of the fresh, fresh air and listened and listened to the
silence which suspended them in a blessed sea of no sound and no motion. They
looked at everything and savored everything. Then, wildly, like animals
escaped from their caves, they ran and ran shouting circles. They ran for an
hour and did not stop running."
