I came across "R is for Rocket" as a curious 11 year old and was transfixed by the stories. The one that stuck with me the most and is still the most memorable short story I ever read is: "Frost and Fire". I remember feeling so strongly for the protagonist who had a dramatically shortened life span and agonizing over every obstacle that delayed him from his goal.

This Ray Bradbury story helped me to poignantly feel how precious life is and how we should make the most of every moment.
