Part A: Johnny, We're gonna miss you, but we all know you're in a better place now and I know you weren't treated really right at home. But whenever you need us we were there for you. We all were even if you didn't see it like that. What you did for those kids was brave and if wasn't for you then they wouldn't be able to live life maybe not like our life by like they want it to be. Your sacrifice made those kids able to live and for those parents to be happy. I may not know exactly what you're…

Johnny, a character from S.E. Hinton’s novel the Outsiders, has a sad and rather undesirable and short outer life, which is best depicted in George Friedrich Handel’s, The Death March. Johnny can almost be described as being rather melancholy. His life at home is not ideal,”I think I like it better when the old man's hittin' me." Johnny sighed. "At least then I know he knows who I am (Hinton 45). Johnny’s parents are not very honourable individuals and are constantly using physical violence…

witness a shift from one extremity to another when it comes to the main character, Johnny, and work. Even though he was a prodigious worker, he did not receive pleasure from what he did.

I'm really scared to do this assignment! I think Johnny is sitting there pouting and feeling annoyed and wants to have a break from playing the violin. He looks like he is feeling frustrated or overwhelmed. It seems as though Johnny is slumped over in his seat leaning on his elbows which usually indicates to me someone is unhappy or exhausted ( or poor core strength haha) .Johnny also has his head in his hands and his eyes closed. If I think back to times I have had a similar positioning to…

In S.E Hinton’s The Outsiders, Johnny, one of the two protagonists in the story, stabs a Soc, also known as a popular kid, while defending Ponyboy, the other protagonist. Their innocence prevails despite the horrendous circumstances Ponyboy and Johnny are put under in the novel.
