Who else read this for school?
We read it in 8th grade. I loved it so much I read way ahead of the class and was finished two weeks before we were supposed to be done.
I read this book over 20 times(the early 80's), I was obsessed with it, and then when the movie came out <3, Loved it, I've seen that many times also.I've also read the other books, Rumblefish, That was Then This is Now, and Tex. Good Movies also.

I love this book!! My class read it in 7th grade. It was the first book of the year.
I had to read this for 7th grade. We read it in the begining of the year after We Beat The Streets. I would have liked it better if I didn't feel so rushed.

I read it in class. It was an assinment. I think i would have enjoyed it more if i didnt have to do those stupid reading guides
LOL! I was in school when the movie came out- So sadly, I never read this for school
We had to take little quizes on the book, like what is Ponyboy's eye color? Which is a stupid question!
I'm a teacher. We read this every year in Grade 8. The students love it. There's a director's cut of the movie. Even though it just adds some extra scenes, it improves on the original quite a bit.
