outsiders essay English



SEXXXY 1

Ponyboy’s and Darry’s relationship is positively impacted by Sodapop.
This is shown to us when Sodapop comforts Ponyboy after his fight with Darry, whenever Ponyboy and Darry fought Sodapop would always try to stop or calm the situation.
It helps the reader to understand they Sodapop just wants to be a normal family, and all get along and love each other but show their love.
S.E.Hinton did this to show the reader that things had been tough for the three brothers ever since their parents died.
This could be related to a scene in ‘The Power of One’ when PK brought all the tribes together to perform a concert PK and Sodapop are very similar and they both stopped the fighting and brought peace and laughter to one another.
SEXXXY 2
Johnny being really emotional.
We see this when Johnny stabs Bob and he starts to cry and if Ponyboy and Johnny told this to Darry their relationship would have affected negatively
It makes the reader scared for Johnny as he just killed someone and if he gets caught he will be charged for murder.
The author did this to add suspense for the reader and make them want to continue reading.
This reminds me of PK in ‘The Power of One’ when he was very emotional when Geel Piet was beat to death.
SEXXXY 3

Johnny died in hospital.
We see this when Johnny was rushed to hospital after saving children from a burning church, which made Darry and Ponyboy feel a great sadness which meant they both felt the say way and express their feelings to each other
It fears the reader because they do not know how the death will impact the other.
The author, S.E.Hinton did this to add more drama and sadness to the novel.
This reminds me of the movie Marley & Me, when the dog died and everyone felt a great sadness.

  4. Megan, I liked how you compared Sodapop to PK in the first paragraph. I now understand the kind of person Sodapop is. I think next time you could try explain things a bit better when it comes to the authors purpose.
