Sachar, L. (2011). Holes. New York: Yearling.
An ancient family curse. A crime he did
not commit. And a whole lot of digging.
This is Stanley Yelnet's life.
When Stanley is sent to Camp Green
Lake, he learns quickly that he is not at a Girl Scout Camp. With a
group of friends with names like Zero, X-Ray, Zig Zag and Armpit,
Stanley spends a lot of his time digging holes and looking for
anything that is special enough to earn him a break from a day's
work. Hot, dirty, and always thirsty, his story unfolds before you
and makes you feel as if you, too, have a shovel in your hand and an
eye our for the lethal yellow-spotted lizards who want to make your
hole in the ground their home.
Read Holes by Louis Sachar and
find out what happens to Stanley, aka Caveman. Does he break the
family curse, and why is he being punished? And will there ever again
be a lake at Camp Green Lake?
