Frederick Forsythe's "The Shepherd".

Look for the podcast with Alan Maitland's reading on CBC.ca or YouTube. It's become tradition for CBC to broadcast it every year on the last weekday before Christmas.

"The Marvelous Stamps from El Dorado" by Robert Arthur. I first read it in maybe 7th grade, and I still remember.

Terry Bisson's THEY'RE MADE OUT OF MEAT
