...We are comparing and stating differences in the book. We read the book The Outsiders. S.E Hinton was the author. I liked the book very much and we eventually watched the movie. As I was reading the book I did not picture the movie the way it was. I am comparing the movie and book and also making some differences. Some of the main characters in the book are Dally, Ponyboy, Johnny, Two-Bit, Darry, and there is other characters that aren't as important.

...Comparing the two mediums of The Outsiders using advantages and disadvantages a person can determine which one is better. The movie was very short with less detail such as how sodas girlfriend had to move away because she was pregnant with sodas baby and they couldn't get married. The book described cherry very well and cherry's friend Martia at the movies when dally was hitting on cherry and how she became a spy for the greasers.
