Recently I have been reading the book Holes by Louis Sachar. It is a great book that is very interesting. Here is a blurb of the story:Stanley Yelnats isn't too surprised to find himself at Camp Green Lake, digging holes in the dried up lake bed, day after scorching day. After all, his family has a history of bad luck.
The boys at Camp Green Lake must dig one hole each day, five feet deep and five feet across. But what are they digging for? Why did Green Lake dry up? And what do onions and lizards have to do with it all? The answers lie in Stanley's own past...
I highly recommend this book it is very cool. It is probably best suited for older kids. I hope you get to read it:
I LOVE the book Holes by Louis Sachar! It is a great suspenseful read that left me on the edge of my seat as I tried to figure out how it would all work out. Did you find that the flashbacks were confusing? Who was your favorite character?
