Apparently there have been a couple of movies and several stage adaptions of the story. I read it in high school and then found it in a childrens Sci-Fi anthology that a store was clearing out for $0.75 a few years ago. There wasn't much else in the anthology that was very interesting (mostly excerpts from old sci-fi novels) but this story was worth much more than the price I paid. I should have bought all the copies they had left and given them to everyone just for this story. I recommend anyone looking for an amazing short story to track this down.
