Ponyboy Curtis probably changes more throughout the course of The Outsiders than any other character. His loss of innocence is a major theme of the novel. Pony is a good student at the start of the story, and he is a member of the track team. Aside from the death of his parents, Pony has suffered less than most of the characters. His older brother, Darry, tries to protect him from the gang violence that

General Introduction to the book (include title and author): The Outsiders is a book that is about the struggle of youth gangs and the importance of brotherhood.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in the 1960’s while in poverty in the midst of gang fights? The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is a story is about a fourteen-year-old kid named Ponyboy who is in a gang called the greasers who get in a lot of trouble. They are always in fights with the greasers and they get in a lot of trouble and have to run away. The book takes place in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Ponyboy stands out in the story because he is the protagonist of the story and he is also a dynamic character. Ponyboy can be described as smart, scared, and brave.

Sam Xu Mrs. Wun EN101-6 English Literature Violence, it changed a lot of characters’ destinies and personalities in The Outsiders. Violence affects Ponyboy most since his life changed a lot because of it. Although violence impacts other characters, their changes are not as big as Ponyboy. Ponyboy’s friends, Dally and Johnny also changed a lot.

What my essay will be about is what I think the theme of The Outsiders will be. “Stay gold, Ponyboy, stay gold,” (148) in the middle of the book Johnny says this to Ponyboy after they beat the Socs in the rumble. But this book isn’t just about fighting it's about a lot more than that: caring, concerned, loyal. Therefore,  I think the theme of The Outsiders is to stick together no matter what happens. The Greasers should stick together because they go through some tough times that could damage their friendship. There is differences between the Socs and the Greases by how good they look, how they act, but they both are in the same position. Ponyboy thinks there is a difference between the Socs and the Greasers, but that isn’t until Cherry came along and told Ponyboy that “things are rough all over,” (35). Cherry said this when she heard the story when the Socs beat up Johnny, and all of the Greasers were there to make sure to stick with him just like when Ponyboy got jumped while walking home from the movies.

The Outsiders is one of the most interesting book. What makes it so interesting is that the greasers, are like a big family with no parents growing up and always having bad times and they never give up. So what makes it so good It has conflict, figurative speeches, themes, and all those make up a good book or even life. There are many conflicts in this books.

The outsiders is a book by Susan Eloise Hinton that is about a group of high school from Oklahoma called greasers and another group called the socs. These greasers are named ponyboy steve two-bit darry dally soda and johnny. The other group, the socs, are basically the rich kids that get kicks out of jumping others because they don't have as much money as they do or do it out of jealousy. These are the kids that throw parties and take things that aren't theirs when they know they won't get into trouble by the police. The group that i think that has it harder off is the greasers.

The Outsiders written by S.E Hinton continues to be a literary influence on the life of many teens. This novel has been transliterated in thirty languages, and many find personal connections with either the plot of the characters themselves. I Was very interested in the characters of the story because they were relatable in the since that they were not perfect and they had a lot of problems. The different groups have two very different lives the greasers for instance have it the worst they are pour and have bad reputations, but the Socs have their problems even know they are rich. It shows that no matter what social class you are in you will have your different set of problems even if one class has it the worst, nothing will be perfect, and

I think The Outsiders will be about a boy with the nickname of Ponyboy. It will tell the difficulties of life he as a member of a gang named the Greasers has to pass through. Their enemies the Socs enjoy beating members like Ponyboy. The reader can infer this by reading the next sentences taken from the introduction: “Hinton wanted to record the mindless violence that took place between the greasers and their deadly enemies the Socs, or socialites, which she saw going on around her”, “Ponyboy’s story, told in a direct, first person voice…” The reader can deduce that the story’s principal
