I think that the appropriate word that best fits to best describe chapters 7 and 8 from The
Outsiders is “Friendship”. I think this word best suits these two chapters because in the story, it talks about Ponyboy and Johnny going back home in one piece. Darry and Sodapop aren’t mad at Ponyboy, they’re actually happy and thankful that he is back with them. Then the next day, it was like a usual morning for Ponyboy, Dally, and Sodapop, no one screamed at anybody or was angry at anyone.






Hey Esti, I thought about the same word. What do you think about the way that Ponyboy talked to Johnnys mom. I think she got what she deserved.
