Have you ever wondered what it’s like to have no one care about you? In the book “The Outsiders” by S.E. Hinton Ponyboy doesn’t really have true family besides his two brothers, unless you consider young teens that live on their own. Even though they can barely control their own life, they control Ponyboy from going down the wrong road.
If Ponyboy wouldn’t of had his friends and family he would’ve been a junkie who didn’t excel in school like he did. Ponyboy also was a star on his track team. Without his family and friends he would’ve been a dropout just like his brother.
I can connect this book to “April Morning” because if Adam’s father wouldn’t have been so strict Adam wouldn’t have been such a good kid and a good student. Even though Adam thought his father hated him he and it made him not want to mess up. His family kept him out of trouble just like Ponyboy.
Family is the most important thing in life. If you didn’t have it you would probably be going down the wrong road.
