Fun sci-fi novella of aliens on a planet encountering humans from the aliens perspective. The story actually tries not to make that immediately obvious, but there are illustrations that seem to give that point away :/ though I wouldn't go so far as to say it's a spoiler (it was the selling point that made me read it).

The end definitely surprised me. It was already thought-provoking... and that just sort of topped it off.

Jag tyckte först att novellen var lite småtråkig. Men när man började blanda in utomjordingarna och lite sådant så fick den sig ett lyft. Slutet var ju helt oväntat och hakan ramlade nästan ner i golvet.
Jag kan varmt rekommendera novellen. Läs den, gott folk! 🙂

Reads like an episode of the Twilight Zone with a twist that makes you question your assumptions. Classic Asimov.

Another free short story from Gutenburg etc. In many ways it's the stereotypical 50's Asimov, light and easy to read, with some interesting background and a plot that helps move it along. At times this one seems a little too much Leave It To Beaver, but that's often his style.
