Paul Rodgers | 1 comments I'm looking for an SF short story published before 1965.
The plot revolves around the arrival of benevolent aliens who present humans with a wealth of gifts.
Towards the end of the story, however, someone discovers that the aliens have the ability to communicate with their dead, prompting the question: why this wasn't included with the other gifts?
If you can help with the author, title, or publication I would be most obliged.
Many thanks.
Paul Rodgers

Paul, did you read this short story in an anthology/collection? (What's the common theme? Are the stories written by the same or different authors? For adults or teens?)

How are the aliens different from humans?

I added some details to the header/ topic title. Feel free to edit it.
