Classic books never go out of fashion． The Outsider first came out in 1967． But even though the book is old， it is still worth reading． The book is written by US writer S．E． Hinton．
The book tells the story of a 14﹣year﹣old boy called Ponyboy Curtis． He struggles with（挣扎于） right and wrong in a society where he believes he is an outsider． The story took place in Oklahoma， US， in 1965．
In the book， the children are divided into two groups． One includes Curtis and Greasers， which are mostly made up of poor kids． They have longer hair and often smoke at a young age． The other group is called the Socs， which is made up of rich children． They wear expensive clothes and drive high﹣tech cars．Those two groups do not get along well． The book only shows us two weeks of the boy's life．But unexpected things happen and change the boy's life forever． I was touched by the friendship among the boys．When any of them had a problem． the others would help．Although they are not well﹣educated （受过良好教育的）， they are kind and brave． For example， when Johnny was hurt and in hospital， his friends visited him almost every day． They brought him food and told him interesting stories．I always dreamed of having kind and strong friendships like this．
This book shows the beautiful personalities （品质） in those ordinary people． I advise that teenagers read this book and I hope they can enjoy it．
