The Outsiders

Summary: A touching story of Ponyboy and the Greasers
Review: I think that this story has many good lessons of life. I think that the Robert Frost poem is really about growing up. How when you're a child, your green. Everything's new to you. I think that Johnny was right when he said that Ponyboy was gold. I recommend this book to everyone, no matter what age. I think that this book has many lessons from life, and we can learn a lot about it.

Summary: A great read
Review: I really loved this book. The one thing I can't stand about good books is finishing them. I read the first chapter the first day(it was assigned by my eight grade teacher). The second day, I read the rest of the entire book and was moved to tears. I was sad about Johnny, though. I rarely read such wonderful books, and I read a lot. Hilton really knows how to express childhood. I guarantee you will love this book, and I'm gonna buy it so I can read it over and over again.

Summary: Such a meaningful story!
Review: "The Outsiders" is certainly one of the best books I have ever read! I like and enjoy every part of this book! It talks about the meaning of life and the unavoidable racial discrimination which makes me think about it over and over again after finishing. I recommand everyone to read this book!

Summary: A well-written book that hits home
Review: Fourteen-year-old Ponyboy is a "greaser": a boy from the wrong side of the tracks. Because Pony is a "greaser", he has to watch his back. The "Socials", a group of rich kids, enjoy beating up on "greasers." He lives with two older brothers as a result of their parents' deaths in a car crash. Pony's loyalty to his brothers and his gang is something rarely seen today. Then one night, his best friend,Johnny, makes a terrible mistake to save his and Ponyboy's lives- and it changes both of them forever.

Summary: This book was terrific!!!!!
Review: The Outsiders is a great book. Ponyboy, a handome 14 year old, is teling the story. He is a "greaser" and they have "rumbles"(fights) against the "Socs" (the rich, preppy people). At chapter four, i could NOt put the book down. If you are reding this review, do not doubt this. Buy this book. It is VERY good. I love it. ps: S.E. Hinton wrote it when she was 16!!

Summary: The book is AWESOME!
Review: Reading books is not a favorite of mine,I much rather read sport magazines. My tutor recommended "The Outsiders" and my teacher approved it for my book report. I am sure glad I read it! I can relate to what happened with Ponyboy & the other characters in the book, with all that is happening with teens today. The movie was also great. . .
