Summary:
S.E. Hinton's iconic novel, The Outsiders, available for the first time in a revolutionary new mini format, perfect for on-the-go reading! 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 on "greasers" like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to expect -- until the night someone takes things too far.
