Rating:  Summary: Twisty. I loved how you went back in time. Review: This book had many plots. I love that! I liked how it was all involved with the future and the past. With the Great Great Grandparents. I loved how there was a big curse on everything like the lake and on Stanley's family. I loved how everything that happened in the past was tied up with the future. For example: I got everything in the book except one thing. I didn't relize that in the end the yellow-spotted lizards didn't bite Stanley and Zero because they had onion blood in them. That's the only time I didn't make the connection with the past and future. I only relized that when my mother (We read the book together) pionted it out to me. VERY TWISTY BOOK! I LOVED IT SO MUCH! NOTE TO THE AUTHOR: WRITE MORE BOOKS JUST LIKE THIS ONE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You! Sincerly, Tricia Pugsley*
Rating:  Summary: journey through holes Review: This book had such creativity and imagination. I recommend it to anyone with a love of a great mystery and anyone who is a child at heart.
Rating:  Summary: Great book for young and old. Review: This book has a different twist then Sachar's Wayside School Series or Marvin Redpost. Talking about a boy who the police thinks stole a famous baseball ball players shoe send him off to a camp. Not avery nice camp, where everyday you have to wake up at 4:30 in the moring and dig a holoe on an old dried up lake 5 feet wide and 5 feet deep! Must read.
Rating:  Summary: Great for the first 90 percent Review: This book has a great story, great characters, and tons of thematic material for discussion. It is very well written. I felt very cheated by the ending, however. The author takes tremendous liberties to tie things up, and I just didn't buy it. My students all loved the ending, though, so don't expect children to be as disappointed at the end as I was. Just don't expect any realism in the last few chapters.
Rating:  Summary: I really enjoyed this book, very interesting... Review: This book has a very thought-out plot, but then again what do you expect from such a cool author as Louis Sachar? But make sure that you are mature enough for this, because, well, lets just say that it contains a little of everything. Overall, this is a highly-reccomended book, so quit wasting your time and go buy one... NOW!!!!
Rating:  Summary: Radical dude! Review: This book has an exciting content about a boy named Stanley Yelnats. He chose to go to Camp Green Lake instead of prison. He has to dig a hole every day that is 5 feet in length, and 5 feet deep.This amazing story unfolds as you read about Stanleys past, present, and future. On a scle of 1-10, I'd give this book a 10.
Rating:  Summary: I love this book! Review: This book has many magical qualitys. The book keeps you wondering whats going to happen next. I would defenitly reccomednd it.

Rating:  Summary: A review of holes Review: This book has strong points and Week points I will tell you my strong and week points about this book..my strong points are is i like about holes is i love how the auther writes about how everything is happening in this book and the way he lets you in on everything i also like how it goes back in time.There are also some weak points in this book like the way sachar will go in to a mystery and not continue also if he puts Stanley and Zero in an area ex.Desert he leaves them there for a while with nothing interesting happening.then he leads Stanley and zero back to Camp Green lake.But other wise the weak points i thought book was ok and i am happy stanley got back home and zero hasd come in contact with his mother once again.
Rating:  Summary: Holes Review: This book Holes is a great book to read. This book is about this boy who has to go to this Juvenile camp for doing something wrong that he didn't even do. He thinks it's his no good dirty rotten pig stealing great-great-grandpa , that he has bad luck. So he has to go to this camp called Camp Green Lake but there is no water , no lake , its a desert. So what they have to do is dig holes everyday that are 5 ft deep and 5 ft wide its alot of hard work! On the way they get into alot of trouble and come into contact with rattlesnakes and yellow spotted lizards. I think this is a great book i give it 5 stars!! I recommend for everyone to read it!
