192 Words1 Page

Argumentative Writing What is better your opinion or mine? The book, The Outsiders, makes better reading than watching the movie. The book has more detail because in the book you get to know the characters.For instance you get to know what Ponyboy looks like,on page one in the book it says “I have light brown hair almost red and greenish gray eyes.” You also get to know Cherry more. For example you get to find out her real name and hair color. On page 22 it says “my name’s Sheri, but I’m called Cherry because of my hair.”
First the book has more events than the movie because in the book there was a court hearing. On page 167 “the hearing wasn’t like I thought it would be.”Additionally Soda dropped the letter he wrote to Sandy on the floor.
