Ray Bradbury originally adapted his short story for an episode of 'The Twilight Zone' but it was rejected due to budgetary limitations. In 1984 a radio version was produced for the series 'Bradbury 13'. In 1990 a Canadian television version was made for the series 'The Ray Bradbury Theatre' (Season 4, Episode 12).
The animated film was repeatedly published on DVD in collections of cartoons - "Fantastic stories". Collection of cartoons number 30.
