The Outsiders (Penguins Mini's) by S. E. Hinton - Hardback

Ponyboy can count on his brothers. And on his friends. But not on much else besides trouble with the Socs, a vicious gang of rich kids whose idea of a good time is beating up "greasers" like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to expect, until the night someone takes things too far.

This mini edition fits in your hand.
