Rough waters

This is going to be a brief summary of my book rough waters this book is about 2 brothers that the parents of these brothers died in a car accident. Very similar to the book the outsiders were 3 boys in this case the two boys had there parents taken away from them without warning. So both these boys have no parents so they live with there aunt who wasn’t there real aunt but they felt like she really is their aunt. So the conflict is that they have to pack up 10 years of the life they lived in the house. Because they were going to placed in a better home so they were pretty ticked off about that. I mean anybody who didn’t have parents and the closest person to you was your brother and you have to live with some stranger I would be pretty mad to. But they have to live with it literally because they really must be mad but they end up getting used to it and again literally live with it whether they like it or not. Would recommend this book because if you have ever gone through a rally hard time in your life you can relate to the things that happen in the book. Also if you liked or have read the outsider you will like this book because it is nearly as good as the outsiders. But the outsiders will still be one my favorites.

Outsiders book to poem


the common theme with the we real cool poem and the outsiders book is that the poem talks about a group and also about the individual characters at the same time if that makes sense that they do talk about the group and the characters.
we lurk late it says in the poem we real cool
the outsiders/ greasers would be out late they really wouldn’t be at home much an example would Johnny he wouldn’t really go home because he had problems at home or also if they had a problem with the soc gang because let’s face it they have a lot of problems with them.
in the poem we real cool it says we die soon
Anybody that was part of the socs or greasers could be killed at point in a day so another example would be Johnny and dally they ended up dying because of each other and they didn’t know when they were going to die they weren’t even adults yet when they died they were only like 16 to 18.
So the main connection between the outsiders book and the we real cool poem is the characters in the greasers gang and also the soc gang because of characters and there actions and decisions they make in the book and maybe the movie.

Hero a really good book

This a book about a troubled kid who gets in many fights faces expulsion in school and has to do community service and makes a new friend in the process. I really liked that book had something’s kind of like the greasers without gang just one person. Something else I liked about the book is that he goes through many hard things in his life. Some examples would be his mom is never home and his dad isn’t around anymore so he has basically no family. That is probably why he gets in trouble so much cause his parents don’t help him and he doesn’t have remodle such as his dad to look up to.
He has a rival just like the greasers but again it is just another boy not a whole gang that is the main kid he gets into fights with. Another connection between the greasers and the book hero is that they used the word blade. In the book they would use it a lot when they were going to fight socs but in this case it was when the other kid would pick a fight with the main character. The main character would do normal teenage things he would go to partys not really like school wouldn’t participate in class and just likes to have fun and be with his friends. I would recommend reading this book if you are into stuff like the greasers and gangs and fights and stuff like that overall it was just a really good book.

Outsider book to movie

Similarities
In the movie and book all the really most important senses and actions were still exactly the same as in the book. Also they kept the same characters such pony ,soda, Darry ,Johnny and dally. They also made sure most of the words they would used stayed the same an example would be when the soc told pony you know what a greaser is and then also pony said you know what a soc is. Everything in the movie played out the same like when Johnny went into the burning house to get the kids and he was injured and ended up in the hospital and died. Same thing when dally robbed the store and got shot by the cops.

Differences
All the scenes  played at very different times compared to the book. They also show some scenes they didn’t show in the book. They even cut out some of the non important things in the move as well. Some of the scenes as well took place at a different time of day an example would be that the rumble was in the day and in the movie the rumble was at night time. Pony boy met with a soc in the movie and he didn’t meat with the soc in the book another difference between the book and the movie when it comes to the scenes.

Actors and directors
Most of the actors really did look like what you would expect from the book to the movie. They had the slick/ greasy hair they looked like fought and tough. The directors knew what they were doing when it came to keeping the movie as much as like the book. But a down side they really shouldn’t have added those extra scenes to the movie. The way the actors body type was like looked how they were described in the book. An example would be pony said he a thin but healthy build Darry had really big muscles and Johnny was really skinny and didn’t have much muscles
