The boys are more like brothers than mere friends. They've been inseparable--until recently. Something seems to be changing between them, and Bryon can't figure it out. Is it Cathy, Bryon's new girlfriend? Is Mark jealous? Bryon is also tired of the street fighting, but Mark seems unable to quit. And where is Mark getting all of that money? In <i>That Was Then, This Is Now</i>, one of her most admired novels, S. E. Hinton paints a richly textured portrait of two boys at a crossroads in their friendship. With careful, intimate strokes, Hinton reveals a boy struggling over whether to protect his best friend or whether to follow his own beliefs about right and wrong. The ending will surprise readers, challenging them to puzzle over Bryon's dilemma in their own hearts. 3200846 1971 That Was Then, This Is Now total:2989|5:741|4:1064|3:951|2:195|1:38| 2989 11242 3602 212 2 6 false false Mon May 07 18:44:07 -0700 2007 Mon Mar 17 16:58:39 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sun Oct 04 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 10:25:57 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 10:27:12 -0700 2009 One That Was Then, This Is Now depict a year in the life of Bryon Douglas, and his foster brother, Mark.
