They were drowning you, Pony. They might have killed you. And they had a blade. they were gonna beat me up.’” (57).

When they realized that there were children trapped in the church, Pony and Johnny ran in without hesitation. Johnny and Pony successfully got the children

mature insight and perspective. When I first read this story, I thought it was just about two social groups that don’t get along, but now I think more deeply about it, it’s really about how people are more similar than they first think they are. When Pony first encounters Cherry at the movies, he is nervous because she is a soc which is the rival group from the greasers. Even though Randy is a minor character, we learn how much he cares about his friends, just like all the greasers care about each

and what’s he done that leads up too this. Pony boy Curtis is a four-teen year old teenager that is a part of the gang, “greasers”. He lives with his two brothers who are Darry and Soda; they are also a part of this gang. Pony boy is considered average looking; he has “light brown hair, almost red and greenish grayish eyes”. Most of the time Pony wishes he was more un normal but other times he says it has its perks looking like everybody else. Pony boys hair is also longer than most of the people

Skill and Craftsmanship in the Works of Steinbeck       Throughout Cannery Row, Of Mice and Men, The Red Pony and The Grapes of Wrath, John Steinbeck professes his admiration for the man who displays skill and craftsmanship in his work. A man who does his job exceedingly well is, by extension in Steinbeck's works, a hero who is satisfied in doing his best in affection for his craft - a direct contrast to the multitude of humans who are merely unsuccessful and unhappy dreamers.     The

Socs: people who jump greasers, and are the exact opposite of them. Due to this, Darry is very hard on Pony. At first, Pony doesn’t see that Darry is trying to help him, but learns that he only wants the best in him. Siblings may be hard on you, but they only want the best in you. In the beginning of the story, Pony walks home from the movie house, despite being told not to walk alone. Pony then gets jumped by Greasers

The Pony Express The Pony Express was an important event in history for three extremely good reasons. For one it helped the farther states to keep in contact with the West, news of what was happening and or important documents were being sent to different states to keep them update, and it helped for new and better ideas of how could the spreading of news could be spread faster and safer.

While walking back home after the movie that pony watched with Cherry Valance, she asked how Darry was compared to Soda.

Also, Ponyboy's brother Darry was forced to give up his scholarship or Pony and Soda may have ended up in foster care. Ponyboy, the narrator, describes his physical appearance as “light-brown almost red hair and greenish-grey eyes, I wish they were more gray because I hate most guys that have green eyes.
