    Hinton uses this poem in the novel to show that things always change. For example, the poem states, “Nature’s first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold.” Frost is saying that at first everything is pure, but it’s hard to keep it that way. This relates to The Outsiders because in the beginning of Ponyboy’s life, everything was fine. Ponyboy and Johnny even gained a lot of fame and recognition for saving the kids from the burning church. This reminds us of how pure everything is at the beginning. In addition to changing, Robert Frost writes, “Her early leaf’s a flower; but only so an hour.” In this part of the poem, Frost describes how hard it is to keep things perfect. This also relates to the novel because Ponyboy and Johnny’s brief moment…

    The Outsiders gives the reader hints and ideas from the story explaining how we should act and other moral issues. For example, a message the author describes is to stay young and innocent. The Greasers, specifically the younger Greasers, are taught to smoke and kill at a young age. This leads them to do bad things such as going to jail, participating in rumbles, and robbing stores. In other words, bad influence at a young age allows them to do illegal actions. By showing these actions from characters and the negative results, Hinton leads readers to the best idea of civility- trying to prevent the habit of performing crimes and being corrupted. Also, S.E. Hinton sends an important message to people who want to give up. She gives clues throughout the story about the importance of friendship and to not block out your emotions and problems.
