Answer 1

Bob... Cherry's boyfriend;

Spoiled and striving for affection.

Jealously guards that which he claims.

Outward beauty with rot inside.

Feels as if he drives alone in his fast, shiny car.

Needs his parents to pen him in,

Gives a fist for each unkindly word,

Fears nought but his own demise, as all men do.

Wants to be James Dean.

Lives in Tulsa, on streets clean and swept.

Shelton.

Answer 2

ok i'll start you off on them, i havent read this book in like 5 years but.....

Ponyboy

Courageous, self-sacrificing, intelligent, observant

Sibling of Darrell and Sodapop

Likes to read and go to movies

Who feels like his oldest brother doesn't appreciate and respect him

then ect......

this really isn't hard unless of course you didn't read the book, if you didn't you should because it is very good.

Darrell

Strong, athletic, protective, mature

sibling of ponyboy and sodapop

likes to play football  ( I think, you can check me on this)

Who needs his brothers

who gives his time and energy to make money

who fears of losing his brothers

and so on, you can do the rest because i haven't read the book in a while.



if you need more help go to sparknotes.com, literature, then the name of the book and click on character analysis

hope i helped a little

Answer 3

You need to do your own work, but here's a suggestion that may help:  Since the two characters we see the most of in the book are Ponyboy and Johnny (because of the time they spend hiding out together in the old church), they're also the two it'll be easiest to find material about.

So I suggest that you do your poems about Ponyboy and Johnny, unless there's another character who **really** strikes your interest.
