I would love to read this but wondered if it came under a different title as no luck in finding it.

It is an old radio play as well as a short story. They play it on Siriy=us Radio ' Radio Classics' sometimes. It was on the X-1 radio show. It is called Zero Hour

It is based on the Ray Bradbury short story called "Zero Hour" contained in his collection The Illustrated Man. So, to read it the book your are looking for is The Illustrated Man. I believe it's also contained in his collection called The Small Assassin. It's a great read. As well, there is a Canadian TV series called the Ray Bradbury Theatre and this story is depicted in one of the episodes to great effect. Now, I can't vouch for the quality or completeness of this link but this appears to be the story here:
