Jealousy plays a big role in the story All Summer in a Day by Ray Bradbury. It illustrates that jealousy can get the best of anyone and lead them to do the wrong to someone blindly. The kids were very excited to know that the sun would be coming soon since the rain had finally stopped. Margot did not seem too stoked about it since she had seen it plenty times before. And the kids knew this. The children were very jealous of Margot because she used to be able to see the sun often while they only see it every seven years. Their jealousy led them to lock Margot in the closet while they all got to go outside and play in the sun. All of the children didn't have any control over what she sees and locking her in the closet wouldn't fix any problem.
