The veldt

I had read a short story called " The Veldt," in my oppoin I would say it's an okay book, because when I started reading it I thought that it was just not a good starting, but I starting reading more and the thing was when I read it, I thought it was just confusing.( Yet I think a lot of things are confusing) Yet this book was just confusing when it started out. But yet I just kept reading it. So on words I knew it was going to be about Lions, because the cover was kind of obvious.

But yet the book doesn't seem like something I would read. I mean it's about some house that is all technoligy, It's called the Happylife House or something like that. And the family is suppoosily being torn apart and like I take it that the lion part comes form Africa when the Lady went on a long vaction to Africa. But in my oppoin I didn't enjoy reading that short story.

My reason why I didn't like was cause it seemed that the author was just off topic with the short story. I mean like I have read better short stories then that. But yet that's just my oppoin and how I think of the authors reading. But I want to know what the author thought about when he made this short story?

I don't understand why some authors have a cover and it sometimes doesn't make sense how the cover doesn't have to deal with the story, Like I hate when i get a book and the cover looks reallly neat and something I would love to read. But when you start reading it, it's like it has nothing to do with the cover. and I don't like that. And that's what I thought of this short story.
