THE OUTSIDERS Question # 1: Literature helps us to understand the character traits and motives of many different people. Some people are similar to us, and others are very different. Write a well developed paragraph in which you tell me which character in //The Outsiders// you are most like and why. You may choose any character, but you must make sure you connect to them in some real way.

In the book, The Outsiders, I think I am most like Cherry. I think I am most like her because when she first met Dally, Ponyboy, and Johnny she did not judge them as being greasers. She gave them a chance and actually got to know them. I am alike because I never judge people, I get to know them first. She also knew that people like Ponyboy and Johnny were good people to hang around with, but Dally was not. I always try my best to surround myself with people that make good choices and will help me in life, not bring me down. She also hated fights, which I also dislike. That is why I think I am most like Cherry in the book, //The Outsiders.//
