The Outsiders Movie & Book

 What I think about if the movie and book are similar/different is that there's many different things and similar things. Some differences that are from the book and the movie is that they left out many other chapters in the movie. For example in the book in a chapter it was talking about how the cherry was the spy and that she was there. But in the they just said cherry was the spy but they didn't show her being spying out for Johnny and Pony. The book and movie were similar because they make the physical traits for character just like how the book described them. The greatest and their hair and how they dressed just how the book described it.n

Connection With " Summer Ball"

   10/1/15
        I have been reading the book called " Summer Ball" by Mike Lupica. This is a sequel book from the first one called "Travel Team" which I've read. I can make a connection with this book because the main character is not the average hieght for a basketball player. Even thought he is smaller than others his one of the best in the team. The reason why I can make a connected with this is because I'm not the tallest person to be able to play basketball but I can play. I even make the JV All- Star Team In my middle school. I can prove this because in page 1 it says " whatever the nice people listing your height in the program always had to say about you." This quote or evidence is talking about when others talk about ur height they always say something postive or maybe negative. I can relate to this quote cause when I was in the tryouts I overheard some saying " His to short to be in this team." Which is true but when they saw me that I can play they change their comments from negative to postive. Even thought also I'm not as good as Danny is described I can kinda relate to him.

Mexican Balero


        My Culutre or Heritage is Mexican because my whole family are from Mexico. One objective that is a huge for my culture is a toy. The toy is called Balero and its very famous in Mexico. The toy is smiler to the American toy called ball and cup. The Balero are basically a wooden stick tied to a big cup that's has a whole in the bottom. The objective is to make the stick go to the hole but it not easy. It takes eye and timing cordenation.

      The book I've been reading is called The Outsiders. I'm currently in Chapter 5 and so far I'm into the book. It's been very interesting because the plot and the characters of the book. Lots interesting events have happened from the begging to currently from the book. I have many different questions and hypothesis for the book. I just have to read more through out the book and it questions will be answered. Some of my questions are is there going to be a huge event where everything changes.

        After reading finishing the Outsider's book I found out the message or the theme of this book. A theme is a message that has to do with the book. What I think the theme is for this book is " Every one is different then others and that's okay." The reason why I think this is because when Johnny wrote the note for ponyboy in chapter 12 it said " It's just when you get used to every thing that it's day. Like the way you dig sunsets. That's gold. Keep that way, it's a good way to be." This shows the them because this is talking about how u do things different then others and its okay. Also it okay to be different the others and to not worry about others. Johnny said a really strong message to ponyboy and it made think about the book and that it related to it. Also this theme relates to the book cause the Socs and The Gresears were very different one to the other . I say this cause in the book in chapter 1 it says " We're,poorer than the Socs and the middle class. I reckon were wilder , too. Not like the Socs, who jump greasers and wreck houses. I'm not saying that either greasers or Socs are better, that's just how things are." This is saying how the two gangs are very different to one another and it fine and neither are better.
