The movie The Outsiders by S.E Hinton and the book were very different from each other. Ponyboy‚ Johnny‚ and Dally are three characters that I noticed were the most different. These three are part of a gang called “Greasers” along with four others. In the book‚ Ponyboy has a good relationship with is brother Sodapop but doesn’t get along well with his oldest brother Darry. He is a good reader as well as successful in track. In the movie he still has a good relationship with Sodapop‚ but he gets along

Though I usually prefer science fiction and fantasy‚ reading The Outsiders was a phenomenal experience. The story line is good‚ but what sparked my interest is how S. E. Hinton‚ who was 16 at the time she created this‚ writes. Everything flows smoothly‚ and with so much detail. You get to know the characters so well it’s hard to believe the story just covers one week of their lives. This book is extremely hard to put down. The Outsiders is about a gang of “greasers‚” or underprivileged teenagers
