About this product

Product Information

Over 50 years of an iconic classic! This international bestseller and inspiration for a beloved movie is a heroic story of friendship and belonging. No one ever said life was easy. But Ponyboy is pretty sure that he's got things figured out. He knows that he can count on his brothers, Darry and Sodapop. And he knows that he can count on his friends--true friends who would do anything for him, like Johnny and Two-Bit. But not on much else besides trouble with the Socs, a vicious gang of rich kids whose idea of a good time is beating up on "greasers" like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to expect--until the night someone takes things too far. The Outsiders is a dramatic and enduring work of fiction that laid the groundwork for the YA genre. S. E. Hinton's classic story of a boy who finds himself on the outskirts of regular society remains as powerful today as it was the day it was first published. " The Outsiders transformed young-adult fiction from a genre mostly about prom queens, football players and high school crushes to one that portrayed a darker, truer world." -- The New York Times "Taut with tension, filled with drama." -- The Chicago Tribune "[A] classic coming-of-age book." -- Philadelphia Daily News A New York Herald Tribune Best Teenage Book A Chicago Tribune Book World Spring Book Festival Honor Book An ALA Best Book for Young Adults Winner of the Massachusetts Children's Book Award

Great book!
This book was a favorite of mine as a teen. Now many years later my teenage daughter is just as obsessed with it as I was. She loved this book! It's an easy read but I'll warn you it is quite hard to put it down once you start reading it. Would definitely recommend this book to anyone.

Title was good, never read it. Wrong book.
Was told it was the same book as the one with multiple people on it just a different cover & it is not. So in my case a waste of money, wasn't the book we needed for school.

The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton
I first read "The Outsiders" in 7th Grade. I was very much attracted to the idea of carrying around switchblades, and I blazed through the book. I knew that I was an Outsider and that I always would be. The parallels in Ponyboy's world to mine were unmistakable; and as always is--and will always will be--the determining factor between classes is money. With the intelligent application of money, power may be attained, along with all the other perks of a raised status. This has not happened to me. I am still poor. I became the greaser of my generation: a skateboarding "Im A Loser Baby So Why Don't You Kill Me" of the 90s. It was a unique time in history, yet, like Ponyboy, even this "title" was not adequate to represent who I was. I'm glad I got through it without killing anyone (that I know ...

It was a unique time in history, yet, like Ponyboy, even this "title" was not adequate to represent who I was. I'm glad I got through it without killing anyone (that I know of). I knew many Dally's of the world, and like Johnny, I wish to relate to them--whichever side of town they are in (certainly we have many more sides of town than Ponyboy could have imagined)--that "There's still a lot of good in the world". Not till many years later did I find out why some parts of "The Outsiders" made me nauseous: S.E. Hinton is a woman! The switchblades are a gimmick for little boys! It's the kind of story I never would have read were it not for the switchblades!

We Lived Their Life and Not By Choice!!!!
My brother, myself and our two best friends ( when we were kids), David and Thomas Stevens were the only four white Kids around our little neighborhood, the rest were all mexicans and our school was the same, and up till we read the “Outsiders” we had no real clue what to do for self preservation, because back then in the 60’s for us, the Mexicans would do things like have the SMALLEST kid walk over “SPIT” on us and we would look around only to see like TEN OTHERS WAITING around a corner for the one who was GETTING SPIT ON to say something or do something to the one that spit on us, (we had a saying back then about fighting with a Mexican kid, “IF YOU FOUGHT ONE BEAN, YOU HAD TO FIGHT THE WHOLE BURRITO!”) This made it basically impossible to defend yourself and we were always getting beat ...

Not to the point of being able to do anything, but because instead of us being alone and an easy target being venerable we were now pretty much always in a group making it a little harder to single just one of us out to pick on. This book really made a difference in the lives of us four during the years that we lived in Pacoima, Californication, being White and on Welfare having basically nothing, marked us as “WHITE-TRASH” and of really small stature, we were nothing more then ”MOVING TARGETS” to the other local residents and that was NOT AT ALL A FUN TIME!!!! I myself ended up by high school my best friends being Spanish but those younger years was not fun at all, I lived almost two miles from school and we had no bus and thus I had to walk, and when I did? I ended up beat up from the feet up so I RAN and let me tell you I had a REALLY FAST TWO MILE TIME in my younger years, but thatt changed as my friends changed! But I don’t think we could have made it had we not read the “OUTSIDERS” we were grateful for the guidance and the information and we had a ball also with all the pretending living as someone else lol. As bad as it could be, it could also be fun and exciting.

Motivated an Unmotivated Group of 9th Graders
I decided that I needed to find a way to motivate my 9th grade class at the end of this school year and chose this book. Until I decided to teach it, I had never read it. I am sure glad that I made this decision. My students love this novel. I love seeing a group of kids who told me they "don't like to read" devouring this novel whenever I give them class time to read it. The characters are "real" and the narration is thought-provoking . . . and so is the teaching and learning taking place in my classroom.I decided that I needed to find a way to motivate my 9th grade class at the end of this school year and chose this book.
