amazing book.

this the first book that i liked

I finished the book holes. It's about a boy named stanley and they accuse him of stealing baseball cleats and he gets sent to this camp called camp green lake. They dig a lot of holes to build character. I highly reccomend this book to anyone who hasn't read it

i am reading holes and i feel bad for stanley because he got accussed for a law that he didnt do.so the cops told his parents its either jail or this camp.the camp is in texas and its like a dessert.all day they have to dig holes with barley any warter and terrible food.also their are scorpions,rattlesnakes and deadly yellow spoted lizards which stanley faces.

awesome book and movie its awesome

I really recommend this book. It is a book about good friendship. In it, a boy named Stanley is found guilty of a crime. (E ven though he was really innocent). So he goes to Camp Green Lake. It is a dried up lake where kids dig holes to build character. Read the book to find out more!

This book is so good. The wording is good. I like how they tell about the past in the Yelnats history and how Elya got cursed.
