SE Hinton is the author of the outsiders come with me as we explore the world of ponyboy. Ponyboy is a boy who lives with his two brothers. Is parent so him and his brothers get in a rumble. So him and his brothers and his friends all win in a fight against the socs because they agreed the forest team to run is the loser and the other team wins. So  finally when he gets back to school he writes about what happen because if you read the book you know that the first sentence is also the last sentence in the book so that mean that the outsiders is  most likely his essay that he is supposed to write. I think you should always think twice before you do.


first, Ponyboy did not think twice when he ran into the burning building. Ponyboy was outside the church with johnny when it was on fire. Ponyboy runs into the church to save the kids from the burning building. And because he dident think he ended up in the hospital. "I'll get them, don't worry!" I started at a dead run for the church, and the man caught my arm. "I'll get them. You kids stay out!" I jerked loose and ran on. All I could think was: We started it. We started it. We started it! (hinton ,78).


Also, another time ponyboy did not think is when ponyboy ran away with johnny when johnny killed bob. they pressed their against the side, trying to hold their breath while they listened to the railroad workers walk up and down outside. And because he dident think he might get in trubble with the court. One poked his head inside, and we froze. But he didn't see us, and the boxcar rattled as the train started up. ¨The first stop will be Windrixville,"." Then for the first time, really, I realized what we were in for. Johnny had killed someone (Pg 54).


Finally, another time is when ponyboy couldn't find a soc his size. Ponyboy was at the rumble when he couldn't find a soc his size so he took the next best size and jumped on him. And because he didn't think he got hurt. ¨I couldn't find a soc my size so i took the next best thing and jumped on him(Pg 95).


I think You should Always think twice before you do. first, Ponyboy did not think twice when he ran into the burning building. Second, another time ponyboy did not think is when ponyboy ran away with johnny when johnny killed bob. finally another time is when ponyboy couldn't find a soc his size so he took the next best thing and jumped on him. So  those are just a few examples of why you should always think twice before you do.
