Hinton's The Outsiders, this novel poignantly portrays the life of a good kid with rotten parents who are so engrossed in their own problems that their children become emotional orphans." --VOYA VOYA (Voice of Youth Advocates) "Readers who crave independence and a way to break destructive family cycles will take interest, as will fans of poetry and poetry slams." --Kirkus Reviews Kirkus Reviews
