The OutSiders
I read " The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton, who at age 16 wrote this book. The book contains 156 very well written pages. The book would probably be placed in the adventure category. The book was written on things that S.E. Hinton experience in her life as a teenager. Almost everything that occurs in this book happened to S.E. as a kid. Let me tell you a little more about this book. In this book the narrator is a boy named Ponyboy. Ponyboy is a fourteen year old living at home with his 2 older brothers. Pony's parents were killed in a car accident when Pony was a little boy. Pony's hair is light-brown. He likes to wear it longer than most boys his age. His eyes are a greenish-gray color. Pony introduces himself in the book by stating he likes being alone. He enjoys going to the movies alone because he feels if he takes someone else it is like having someone read over his shoulder. In the book, Pony has many things that he states that are very thoughtful. He says at one time, that watching the sunset makes him feel safe and it makes him happy he lives here, but at the same time he wonders if the sunset looks the same to other people that don't have the same kind of life he has. With everything he states, I conc
Johnny died in the hospital and Dally, another kid in the gang was shot by the cops, did they realize the only way to stop all this was to quit the name calling, jumpings and everything else. These two groups are rival gangs because of the money difference. They hide there for a week until Johnny's conscience catches up with him. greasers to determine who would be in charge of everything. The Outsiders is a book about a group of guys who live on the poor side of town. All the children get out with no injuries but Johnny had the roof clasped on him and it broke his back. I think I will enjoy reading it again just as much as I did this time. The fight is staged in a vacant lot. On the other there is another group of guys who live in the big houses and have everything handed to them. While the greasers think they are just as good, if not better than the socs. It makes it a lot easier to picture in your brain. I like how the author describes the setting in the book. Both sides feel the cops won't be called if they fight here. The socs think they are better than the greasers. This makes the story quite interesting for what goes on.
