An Outsiders View...(:

              Have you ever felt left out or not wanted? Well that is how a black stable-hand named Crooks felt. Nobody wanted to talk or hangout with him because of his skin color. That happens still to this day. In middle school there were always "cliques" and everyone belonged to one. Not me. I didn't fit in with anyone. It was a really hard thing to deal with. Luckily one day, a girl named Rileigh told me to sit with her. Ever since that day, she has been one of my best friends. She moved in seventh grade but we still keep in touch. Because of her I became more social and met new people. If I rewrote the book Of Mice and Men, I would make a character come to the ranch and help Crooks be more social and be a very respected man. I think everyone belongs somewhere. You just need to be social and put yourself out there. (:
