When they were about to leave the place someone came and put there arm around Abbey and it didn’t tell what she did till the next chapter. To tell you the truth I really didn’t want to read it because I was scared something bad was going to happen. It turned out she just bit him really hard and it worked! The book was odd because some of the stuff just didn’t make any sense to me like why they snuck out of the house so may times. And when the father didn’t want to get out of jail it made no sense because he could have gotten bailed out!

Cherry is smart and dreamy like Ponyboy, and they have a good conversation. Seven Excerpt Responses “You cant win against them no matter how hard you try because they’ve got all the breaks and even whipping them isn't going to change the fact.” Chapter 1, Page 11 In this scene in the story, Ponyboy is asking His older brother Darry if he can participate int he gang rumble. Ponyboy recently got hurt in a church fire so Darry thinks it would be good for him to stay out of the fight but Ponyboy still really wants to. I think this excerpt is important to the story because it shows how daring and how Darry is telling Ponyboy with all mighty. It is a form of hyperbole because it is exaggerating what is going to happen.

The script frequently switches from character to character in different stages of their lives to create the illusion of feeling lost in the story and not really know what’s going on. Jane Harrison’s intention was to make the viewer feel a faint sense of losing their place in the play to reflect the way the characters felt lost in a white man’s world. ‘Stolen’ depicts Jimmy as always being on the run and having to fend for himself and his mother from a young age, he would get into to trouble for thieving food supplies from different local places. He never really had a permanent home so he could let his guard and inhibitions go. He moved from relative to relative until he was finally institutionalized.

It forms this brotherhood because every night over the summer session the boys would go and jump out of the tree into the Devon River.

For example one night when Finny is going out to the tree he tries to bring Gene, but Gene refuses because he wants to study for his test the next morning. Gene and Finny become close friends after jumping out of the tree for there first time, because when they were climbing out on the branch Gene fell but Finny was there to catch him and save his life.
