Question

So I have to do a report on a book called The Outsiders written by S.E. Hinton and I need help with some of the questions such as:
1) What do you think “The Outsiders” means? What is an “outsider”?
2) What do you think a “coming-of-age” novel means?
3) What do you think were some of the issues teenagers faced in the 1960s?
4) Do you think these are issues that teenagers still face today?

Answer 1

I think that the title "The Outsiders" means that their are 2 or more groups of people. And one part of the groups are the main groups who are the ruler/controllers of all the other groups and are referred as "The Outsiders". The kinds of characters that I think will be showing up in the book "The Outsiders" are gangsters. I think this because on my prediction what the title means the other groups are not as developed as the main group so I think that all the other groups or group are on the low end and their gangsters that rob or do illegal stuff for a living.
