Summary: Exelent book
Review: This was an excellent book!!! It was funny, serious, and interesting. It is a good read. This book gave me a front row eye view of the battle between the Socs and the Greasers. It was funny because soda, Ponyboy's brother, is very comical. Like when he and the rest of the gang start doing acrobatics of the porch a bunch of people fall down. This story is also serious at the same time like when Johnny goes to the hospital the whole gang is sad. Also at the same time it can be poetic when the fuzz, police, is after Ponyboy & Johnny they go to an abandoned church and the story slows down and Ponyboy recites some poetry about life. And still after all of that it is still one of the best books I have read!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Outsiders
Review: The novel "The Outsiders" was a great book. It was a book a lot of action, friendship, and differences. Some of the parts that had a lot of action were when the Greasers and the Socs at the huge rumble and when Pony and Johnny saved those boys from the church. This book also showed a lot of friendship and loyalty. The Greasers showed a lot of loyalty to each other because they are all like brothers. Also in this book there were a lot of differences. For example the Greasers and Socs. They were different in pretty much every way. "The Outsiders" is a great book for teenagers and adults I thought it was the best book I ever read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Outsiders
Review: I recommend the book "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton to all the 13 year olders and up in America.This book is full of many realistic events in it.For example, all the fights between the Greasers and the Socs and the family problems with both Ponyboy's family and Johnny's family.Another reason I recommend this book is because you can relate.For instance, you have to deal with other gang members just as spoiled and rude as the Socs everyday. Another reason I recommend this book is because it deals with friendships and my friends and I have always enjoyed books that involve friendships.Ror example when Ponyboy and JJohnny ran away together because one of them was in trouble. I recommend this book to anyone who can read because everybody will like it.

Summary: ~*~*~The~Outsiders~*~*~
Review: The Outsiders was a great book that relates to a teenagers life in some or many ways.For example,in school teens are getting beat up for no reason just because they are not "cool".That realtes to the book because the "Socs"(the popular,rich kids) like to go around and pick on or start fights with the "Greasers"(uncool,long hair,poor).The book is very descriptive in the text.In the begginning when Ponyboy(one of the main characters)is explianing what him and all the pepole involed with the book.For example He told how Soda hair color was even in the summer.Also during the fight when the explain how everyone got hurt and told how all the people in the fight felt.The Outsiders has alot of action put into the book.For example the way there is more then one thing going on in the book at once.I personally recomd the book "The Outsider" to read for all the details, how it realates and all the actoin.

Summary: The Outsiders
Review: "Stay gold ponyboy" said Johnny to Ponyboy just before he died.
Ponyboy lives with his two brothers. Their names are Darry and sodapop. Ponyboy is a 14 years old boy, which is in a click called "The Outsider" because he is the different one that likes to watch movies and read books. The Greasers, which are on Ponyboys side, they live on the eastside of town. The socs are the preps that live on the Westside of town and like to get in fights with the Greasers. The Greasers are mostly poor while the socs are the rich one that have nice up to date cars. Ponyboy Darry and Soda are brothers that have had to survive with out a mother or father. They go through a lot in this book and I think you will enjoy it. S.E Hinton did a good job with showing detail. It is a good class book with barely any boring parts so have fun and enjoy "The Outsiders"

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Greaser's Point Of View
Review: First off, I would like to thank my teacher for letting our class read this book. Second, I think that this book deserves a 4 star award because it has some good qualities and some null qualities. Por la audience: This is a pretty good book because it speaks somewhat truthfully. It starts well enough because it has gangs and the usual troubles that come with it. It also has some qualities that other books lack. Such as the old-fashioned version of speaking. It also has things that don't make sense. For instance, it has the characters that think they are unbeatable. It has people that die, and it has people that are more of quantity than others. The Socials or Socs are a pretty decent members of society besides the fact that they jump poor people and treat anyone who can't afford their own clothes rudely and with extreme prejudice. I think however, that some people can be pretty odd at times. For instance, it has a gang called Greasers that are completely the opposite and aren't prejudiced in the least bit. They act accordingly to their own laws, and mostly they don't like fighting unless they absolutely have to. The Greasers dress poorly, wearing jeans and sleevless t-shirts or just normal shirts. While on the other hand, the Socs dress in Expensive clothing, drive expensive cars, and pretty much get a kick out of fighting with other gangs, such as the Greasers. Overall, this book is pretty well built, whether its the problems happening throughout the story, or the scenes depicted, it is an above average book altogether. This has been a 13 year old portraying his response to a fine story.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A 12-year old reader's REVIEW
Review: I think that the Outsiders was a good book. Ponyboy and the whole Greasers gang all cared about Johnny, because he was jumped by the Soc's and he got roughed up pretty bad. Ponyboy and Johnny were at the park, and Bob was triing to drown Ponyboy, andJohnny stabed him because he was defending Ponyboy. Then the Greasers and the Soc's had a rumble. A church cought fire and Johnny was hurt badly. The Greasers won the rumble and, came to see Johnny and after they told him, he died. He told Ponyboy "stay gold"

Rating: 5 stars

Review: I think this book was the best book I read so far in eight grade.
I would recommened this book to everyone."The Outsiders" was a realistic book. For example it has to do withj everything in the world today. It has to do with fighting and getting into lots of trouble. You can relate to this book in many ways.The Greasers and Socs are like very different until they find out that they have little in common."The Outsiders" deal with friendship and emotions.Poneyboy and Johnny stuck together during there time and needs. It is emotional when Johnny and Dally dies to the gang. I think this was a good book and I think everyone would like this book. Everyone would like this book because it has emotions and action to it.Our Langeage Art class just got finish this book

Summary: Daniel's review
Review: "Stay gold Ponyboy." said Johnny to Ponyboy just before he died. Ponyboy liives with his two brothers.Their names are Darry and Soda.Ponyboy hanges out w/ his friends Two-Bit,Dally, Steve, and Johnny.They had to fight in a rumble against the Socs becuase Johnny killed a Socs Bob. Randy is Bob frined but did not fight in the rumble becuase he thought it solved nothing. Cherry is Bob girlfriend and Ponyboy's kindof friend. Randy soon after became Ponyboy's friend after the rumle. Ponyboy is now trying to get over Johnny's death. He got over Johnny's death and still lives w/ his brothers Darry and Soda.
