Description
A heroic story of friendship and belonging
Ponyboy can count on his brothers. And on his friends. 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 "greasers" like Ponyboy. Al least he knows what to expects - until the night someone takes things too far.

"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."
