This is one of the best realistic fiction books I have ever read.

I can't wait till I read this book! All of my friends have read it and keep encouraging me to read it. It looks very good and I would like to watch the movie too!

I loved the movie, I loved the book, I loved the characters, and I loved the plot. Louis Sachar obviously knows what he is doing, because even if he made a huge mistake in this book, one that made him have to start all over, he could have made it interesting.

Didn't do a crime. Well, court decisions are different. 2 choices:jail or camp greenlake. At greenlake, you dig holes for 1year. No one knows why they dig holes. Stanley yelnats (name spelled forward & backwards) links in conclusions with a story and discovers why they dig holes Amazing book!

This book is an awesome book. I couldn't even think of going to a camp like the one in Holes. I gave this book a five star rating because the author described so much in the book that I wish he made another book . I don't think he has but if he did I would so read it. I think that louis did an exalt job with wighting this book. For some reason I would say that this book this inspiring for me because it makes me work harder at everything I do in my life. I also think that this book was very well written. I love this book!!!!

that is an awesome report dancer4. i love the book too!

I love love love love love this book!!. Even though I'm a girl and this book is about a boys camp I still LOVE IT!!!!!! Its the best book on the planet!!!!

This book is really great but I have not finished it yet. I am wondering what the rest of the book is like?

i red this book for school and thought it wasn't going to be good but i just finished and i loved it so much. so much suspense. when i finished the chapter i always wanted to read on.
