He's proud of his reputation, but what he wants most of all is to be just like his older brother, the Motorcycle Boy. Whenever Rusty-James gets in over his head, the Motorcycle Boy has always been there to bail him out. Then one day Rusty-James' world comes apart, and the Motorcycle boy isn't around to pick up the pieces. What now? <p/>Like Hinton's groundbreaking classic <i>The Outsiders</i>, <i> Rumble Fish </i>was adapted into a movie by Francis Ford Coppola and remains as relevant as ever in its exploration of sibling relationships, the importance of role models, and the courage to think independently. </p><p>This edition includes an exclusive Author's Note. <p/>An ALA Best Book for Young Adults<br>A <i>School Library Journal</i> Best Book of the Year<br>A <i>Kirkus Reviews</i> Editor's Choice <p/>Sharper in focus and more mature in style than Hinton's <i>The Outsiders</i>. --<i>Booklist</i> <p/>Hinton, on her own turf, is still unbeatable. --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>S.E.
