Summary: Holes
Review: I think you should read Holes. It is brilliant. My favorite part is at the beginning. The middle was cool too. It was about a boy named Stanley. He had a choice either to go to jail or to go to Camp Green Lake. He chose Camp Green Lake because he never been to camp before. He was overweight and he already knew that. He already made friends at Camp. They had to dig holes about five feet long and five feet wide. I like the part were Zero digs half of Stanley's hole while Stanley teaches Zero how to read. I'm still reading that book. So far it is fantastic! I think you should read it.

Summary: What a great book!!
Review: I borrowed this book from a friend because he said it was hillarious, so I decided to try it out. I am not a usual reader of books, so I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it. But, I loved it. It was excellent because he sort of lets you think what's going to happen on your on. He mixes a history that relates to the story with the actual events occuring. It makes you think,"Hey, that's Sam from the history!" This book was so good, I completed it in 2 days. I am going to use this book for my oral report in my English class.

Summary: Wanna go diggin kids?
Review: "Holes," written by Louis Sachar, is a tale of intertwining stories meshed together to unfold a plot that will capture any reader, young or old! I loved this book so much that I have been making my adult friends, co-workers, and neighbors read it. They have all come to the same conclusion - this book is a story not to be missed by any. Young Stanley Yelnats is sent to a detention facility at Camp Green Lake, but this camp is not your average camp because "there is no lake at Camp Green Lake." From the beginning, Sachar has the reader trapped into why exactly there would be no lake at a place bearing a title that says otherwise. Stanley has been sent to this camp due to unforeseen circumstances, but weird happenings are quite regular with Stanley's life. His family has been cursed for generations thanks to his "no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great- grandfather!" When Stanley is told to dig holes, he doesn't understand what the purpose could possibly be. And these holes are not your average holes either, but then again, Stanley is not your average kid. He begins to realize that the holes may mean more than what they represent on the surface. Sachar weaves a tale that is hard to put down once started. The humor and wit keeps the reader interested through the very end. I highly recommend this book to kids and adults alike!

Summary: A New Dickens
Review: In Holes, Sachar has created an initially dark tale with a taciturn protaganist who observes and becomes the unfolding of destiny, the unwinding of curse, the redemption that comes of unprejudiced love for your fellow human. It is many tales interwoven like the better Dickens, almost celtic in its interlacing of story-lines that as they converge across time create epiphanies for the reader, stairsteps of redemption. You will not find the sweet simple reversals of most young adult fiction, but a deep awareness that scars remain, that grudges can hold for generations, and that evil is only combatted by sticking close to your friends and your convictions. It is not luck or fate or fortune -- in spite of the curse which drives the story -- that produces the redemption, but instead the strength that Stanley gains through the trial, and his putting it to the use of saving a life. My son of 10 years has been asking me to read this book for six months or so. He said it was the best book he had ever read. I have always said yes someday, I am busy, etc. I have two degrees in literature and run a publishing company. I have little desire to read the typical young adult novel driven by bathroom lingo and who is popular and so forth. But recently he was sick and wanted me to lay down with him in the evening while he read so I reached over and picked up Holes. He was two hours sound asleep and I was still reading. This book holds well in my estimation with the great classics of destiny fulfilled: The Phantom Tollbooth, David Copperfield, Tristram Shandy, Esther, and Harold and the Purple Crayon.

Review: Holes is i excellet book. I like the the story because it was about kids thats are in juvenile. They had to dig holes in the middle of the texas desert. The people that are running the process of digging is trying to find treasure in the hot desert. The jail was in the middle of the desert so the kids could not escape. The doors were wide open for anybody that wanted to leave . The guards tell them that they can try to escape anytime they want but they know that they want make it. Two other kids think differently they flew to the open desert. For days they were looking for water or somebody to help them. On their way to freedom they encounter a lot of dangerous things and had to make life or death decisons.This story will leave you yearn for more. It is a excellet book thats why i give it 5 stars
