<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> When it was first published in 1967, "The Outsiders" defied convention with its immediate, deeply sympathetic portrayal of Ponyboy and his struggle to find a place for himself in a difficult world. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> The 45th anniversary of a landmark work of teen fiction <p/>Ponyboy can count on his brothers and his friends, but not on much else besides trouble with the Socs, a vicious gang of rich kids who get away with everything, including beating up greasers like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to expect--until the night someone takes things too far. <p/>Written forty-five years ago, 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 written. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> Praise for <i>The Outsiders</i> <p/><i>The Outsiders</i> 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. --<i>The New York Times</i> <p/> Taut with tension, filled with drama. --<i>The Chicago Tribune</i> <p/> [A] classic coming-of-age book. --<i>Philadelphia Daily News</i> <p/> What it's like to live lonely and unwanted and cornered by circumstance...There is rawness and violence here, but honest hope, too. --<i>National Observer</i> <p/>This remarkable novel gives a moving, credible view of the outsiders from the inside...we meet powerful characters in a book with a powerful message. --<i>The Horn Book</i> <p/>A <i>New York Herald Tribune</i> Best Teenage Book<br> A <i>Chicago Tribune</i> Book World Spring Book Festival Honor Book<br> An ALA Best Book for Young Adults<br> Winner of the Massachusetts Children's Book Award <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> S.
