Book Reviews of The Outsiders
Book Review: A 12-year old reader's REVIEW
Summary: 3 Stars
I think that the Outsiders was a good book. Ponyboy and the whole Greasers gang all cared about Johnny, because he was jumped by the Soc's and he got roughed up pretty bad. Ponyboy and Johnny were at the park, and Bob was triing to drown Ponyboy, andJohnny stabed him because he was defending Ponyboy. Then the Greasers and the Soc's had a rumble. A church cought fire and Johnny was hurt badly. The Greasers won the rumble and, came to see Johnny and after they told him, he died. He told Ponyboy "stay gold"Book Review: A Book Review on the out siders

I would give the outsiders 5* Because it has Action,Exitement ,And it is thrilling. The book is about a bunch of gangs the two main groups are the socs, and the Greacers.and two of the greacers save a group of kids from a burning chuch, And one of them gets hert and you will have to read it to see who it is and if he dies.Book Review: A Boy's view at: The Outsiders

Hi readers, my name is Jack Zeringue and I go to Stuart Hall School. I am 13. We read The Outsiders as one of our books this year for Seventh Grade. It was one of the only books I actualy liked that we read in Middle School, besides The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle.
The Outsiders was very well written. I really liked how readers got the opportunity to step into Ponyboy Curtis' shoes and see what he thinks about all of the events that happen to him and his pal Johnny.
I have a warning for readers: Do not watch the movie before reading the book, it has different parts to it than the book. Read the book then watch the movie, you will like the movie just as well as the book.
I have to give S.E. Hinton her props on this because she was only 16 when she wrote it. I don't think I'll be able to write that good of a book at that age.
I recomend this book to everyone that likes to read about other types of lifestyles and the problems that are caused because of that.
Book Review: A CLASSIC FOR ALL AGES!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was getting ready to go on vacation and realized I had nothing to read, I looked at my older sister's bookshelf for something. When I came across this book, I recalled hearing the movie was good, so I took it. I have read only Stephen King for the last 3 years, so I was surprised that this book was so good. It doesn't take long to read, so it is definately worth the time it takes to read it, even if you don't find it to be fantastic. I think anyone from 10 to 100 should check it out!Book Review: A Cassic Novel from Beginning to End.
