SynopsisFrom the best-selling author of The Outsiders , S.E. Hinton's Tex explores friendships, conflict, depression, self-destructive behavior, and truth and acceptance. This edition includes a new and exclusive Author's Note. Easygoing and reckless, Tex, likes everyone and everything, especially his horse, Negrito, and Johnny Collins' blue-eyed sister, Jamie. Life with his older brother, Mason, would be just about perfect if only he would stop complaining about Pop, who hasn't been home in five months. While Mason worries about paying the bills and getting a basketball scholarship--his ticket out of Oklahoma--Tex just seems to attract trouble. When everything seems to be falling apart, how can Tex find a way to keep things together?, In Tex , the raw energy for which Hinton has justifiably reaped praise has not been tamed been cultivated, and the result is a fine, solidly constructed, and well-paced story - School Library Journal , Starred An ALA Best Books for Young Adults A School Library Journal Best Books of the Year
