The more removed I am from reading Dandelion Wine, the more I dislike it. It lacks a consistent POV, the stories are largely unrelated to one another, the tone varies widely. It does not create in me a feeling of nostalgia, but a feeling of annoyance.

FYI, I found two downloadable radio dramatizations of the Lavinia story.

Jeanette Nolan in "The Whole Town's Sleeping" (Suspense, June 14, 1955).

Agnes Moorehead in "The Whole Town's Sleeping" (Suspense, August 31, 1958).

And YouTube has a TV dramatization, titled "The Lonely One" (Ray Bradbury Theater, July 10, 1992):
