Ponyboy Curtis and his gang are tight. From Dally (Dallas) the toughest one, to Johnny, the gang's pet, these pals all have one thing in common; they've all been stereotyped as greasers by the Socs, the rich group. It's a great book.-Mary, Charlotte,

I recently read this book over the summer and I think Pony boy and his friends were heroes. I loved this book and I would recommend this book.

This book is just like explaining how it is in our world right now with all of the gangs and fighting. Some people want it to stop because it does kill all loved ones!

I really enjoyed this book. My best friend has a life like this. It can show people the other side of life. So I do love this book.

I love this book! It's extremely hard not to cry. My teacher told us to only read one chapter per night, but I read over half of it in one night!

I think that this book was excellent. I think that Ponyboy and his brothers, Dally and Sodapop, went through a lot growing up with no parents at their age. If you really think about it they have no one there to feed them. It's all up to Dally. It must have been hard for him. It's hard enough for him to work for himself to eat but to have two brothers to feed too. I think that's why Dally always snapped at Ponyboy. He cared so much for him and didn't want him getting hurt. I think that "Cherry" was right when she said, "Things are rough all over." It goes to show you that although you may think you are the only one with problems that there are other people out there with problems too. I think this was an excellent novel and if you haven't read it yet, head over to the nearest bookstore and READ!!!

The same reason I read the outsiders by S.E Hinton is because my cousin told me that it was her favorite book. I thought ahh, whatever. I read the first chapter. I thought so-so. The next day I was hooked! That book was absolutely amazing. It was action packed and made you think about them. I read the book last summer and I loved it.

This is one of the BEST books I've ever read! I couldn't put it down last night until i got to the end and I do agree it is like the groups at our schools today and that we do route for the side we more then likely wouldn't route for in real life but this book was SOOOOOOO good I cried! I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!! :)-Jessica, Stokesdale, NC
