Assignment

Your Task: Rewrite the hospital scene where Johnny's mother comes to visit. In your version, the nurse does not turn her away, but lets her in the room. Imagine Johnny's reaction. What would Johnny's mother say to him? What would Johnny say to her?

You are writing part of a narrative, not a script. Sentences, punctuation, and paragraphs should appear the way it would in a book. Use the book or passage above as an example. Pay special attention to the dialogue and how the author starts a new paragraph each time she changes speakers.

                               The Outsiders should not be banned from school libraries because,
It really is not that violent. It's not even necessarily about drugs either. It is only cigarettes. Nothing to bad.
                             In the article, " Banned Book Awareness: The Outsiders",  it says that the book was influencing drugs and alcohol usage but, it was not the book influencing that. People in real life influence drug and alcohol abuse. "The Outsiders" is only a story.
                              
                              In the book its actually telling about why it would be a bad idea to be in a gang or drink or smoke. Its actually kind of setting an example on why you shouldn't do that because it is telling a story of what happens or can happen if you end up in that life situation. It's actually quite educational about teaching wrong from right.
                            
                                So basically it should not be banned because it isn't as violent as described, It also does not really influence drug abuse and it is educational and informative.
