I just read one of my new favorite stories! It is called: The Outsiders, By S.E Hinton (I hope I spelled that right!). It is a compelling story about a young boy named, Ponyboy, who is living with his brothers, Soda, and Darry. He is only 14 and is part of his brothers gang. In this story there are two sets of people, Soc's and Greasers and tey are against each other. When something goes to far, every thing in Ponyboy's life changes along with his friend Johnny! I loved this story! I read right through it! Thre is a little bit of language, and gang action. Not to mention the Author was 16 when she wrote this!!!
I think twelve is the best age to read it. I have started To Kill a Mockingbird, By Harper Lee. We'll see how that goes.
