When Johnny grew up he moved to earth. When he moved to earth, he went to North America,

On page 11, it says, “He had a nervous, suspicious look in his eyes, and that beating he got from the Socs didn't help matters.” (S.E.Hinton) This explains that Johnny knew when something bad was going to happen to him because he had already been beaten up before and he was still very fragile from it. On page 22, its states, “Johnny was always nervous around strangers.” (S.E.Hinton) This means that everyone could tell that he was nervous around people because he would act different and he would also act shy,the gang could tell to but they knew that was how he always had

This caused Johnny to be severely depressed all the time, and made his life more miserable than it already

“Yeah, I’ve seen a number of their graves in the cemetery.” I admitted as I looked up at the crow that was now back circling in the sky above us. “I guess a lot of kids have died around here, huh? But, you can’t blame that on a girl who lived close to three hundred years ago. Places got hit by diseases all the time back then, dysentery, cholera, measles, mumps, small pox, bad water, stuff like that. Things back then weren’t like they are today.”

I think that Johnny in the book would never want to socialize with anyone he didn’t have

Those big,black eyes of Johnny’s always seemed to glow with anxiety and terror. The constant resentment that came from his parent’s broke him badly, yet he was understanding when it came to us and our problems no matter how petty the situation was.

The Transcontinental railroad could be interpreted as the most memorable change in America in the 19th century. The railroad played an important role in the westward expansion and on the progression and development for the American economy. When America had acquired the West, the need for adequate transportation rose considerably. Suggestions dispersed about a railroad that would scope across the continent from East to West. Republican congresses ruled for the federal funding of railroad construction, however, all actions were on a standstill for a few years because of the Civil War. In the wake of the American Civil War of 1861-1865, the rush to put together the transcontinental railroad went underway in 1866. President Abraham Lincoln permitted the Pacific Railway Act of 1862, allowing two railroad companies the right to construct the first ever American transcontinental railroad. While there are several industries, which have left an indelible mark on California and may be more associated with California in the twentieth century, however no industry has had a greater impact on the American development of

First of all, in chapter one they introduce all of the characters and they introduce Johnny like, ¨If you can picture a little dark puppy that has been kicked too many times and is lost in a crowd of strangers, you’ll have Johnny.

This is apparent when Two-Bit said he wondered why Johnny and Ponyboy were such good friends because neither of them talked. On page 39, it says “You must make such interesting conversation, Ponyboy keeping his mouth and you not saying anything.” This shows that Johnny is quiet and doesn’t talk much. Another example is when he was with Ponyboy at the movie and they were sitting by the Soc girls and he was being quiet. On page 24, it says Johnny managed a shy “Hi” to the girls and tried to watch the movie. This means Johnny was quiet and always nervous around strangers. As you can see Johnny is extremely quiet and doesn’t say much around

She’s probably come to tell me about all the trouble I’m causing her and about how glad her and the old man’ll be when I’m dead.” This shows that Johnny’s mother doesn't deserve to see him because instead of thinking of Johnny, she instead only thinks about herself. Most parents are not liked by their children, but that is because the parents care too much. This is the opposite for Johnny’s mother, she is a selfish person, who doesn’t even care that her child is in the hospital, and that is wrong.
