We read that story in my sophomore year of high school. Have to wonder if it would be forbidden by teachers today. Too much a moral about being independent and free for kids, they'll think.
I remember this adaptation. If I remember correctly the President of the United States is chosen at random from everyone in the country. Sounds like a hella good system...
