Crystal writes the following about The Outsiders :

I loved The Outsiders! It is one of the best books I have ever read in my whole life! I always like books about kids or teenagers, so that is probably one of the reasons why I loved this book so much. The book has so many great morals and messages to the readers, and it is unbelievable that a sixteen-year-old could write such an inspirational and touching story. I wish I could write as good as S.E. Hinton. This book is filled with such interesting,fun, and lovable characters that the plot seems to come to life! The Outsiders is an amazing piece of literature that shows us life from a different point of view than most of us know. It is also a wonderful display of the friendship and love that everyone needs to get through struggles and to stay alive. The story makes the reader go through so many different strong emotions, and certain parts of the book can make you laugh out loud or cry your eyes out. I believe this book should be a classic that should continue to help young readers to understand that everyone has troubles. I know I will read this book many more times,and I will never forget the lessons I have learned from The Outsiders.
