Rating:  Summary: A great parent-child read-along! Review: This book took my son and I on an incredible journey of one child's path of misfortune, to his path of true friendship, to his path of family ties. Sachar captures moments of the past and interestingly weaves them to the main character's life so wonderfully that it is difficult to put this book down. We were at the edge of our seats sharing our reading time, each of us waiting to here what would happen next. What is interesting is that Sachar allows room for your imagination, a wonderful way for a young reader to share his/her thoughts on the outcome of a story.
Rating:  Summary: Fillen in the Holes? Review: This book was a amazing! We liked the way it all weaved or tied into at the end. The charactors were also very cool! We expecially liked the way Stanley's name was spelled backwords too! We live all the way acroos the ocean from the US and almost everyone we know has read it and loved it! It now has become our FAVORITE BOOK. Louis Sachar is GREAT! He also has a great imagination! Among all of his books, this is the BEST book so far. His other book are well written as well, but this book is far better than the rest! We recomen this book!

Rating:  Summary: Best book ever written since the bible!!!!!! Review: This book was about a boy who had a pretty miserable life. He was well, a large boy. His name was Stanley Yelnats and was framed for stealing a pair of shoes that were going to be auctioned. Stanley got aent to a juvenile detention facility in the middle of a desert. This facility was called Camp Green Lake. The weird thing about the place was you dug holes to build "character". There was actually a real reason they dug holes and Stanley decides to find out why. I loved this book because Mr.Sachar used vivid and imaginitive writing while writing. In fact I read the 233 page book in under 24 hours.
Rating:  Summary: A book you would love Review: This book was about a boy who had to go to a camp where kids go if they have committed a crime. Stanley Yelnats went because somebody else stole a famous persons shoes and dropped them with Stanley and the police caught him. In the camp that he goes to the kids have to dig one hole every day that is 5 feet wide and 5 feet deep. One of the people in the camps name is Zero he is named that because he never talks, he doesn;t know how to read of write, and he is small and very good at digging holes. Zero wants to learn how to read and write so he digs half of Stanley's hole everyday and in return, Stanley teaches Zero how to read and write.
Rating:  Summary: What I Thought Review: This book was about a kid named Stanley Yelnats. He was sent to a detention camp for stealing some shoes. The camp was run by a mean warden who made the boys dig holes in search of buried treasure. Stanley and a boy named Zero escaped from the camp. I won't give away the ending, but they had a good adventure and it ended well. This book was okay, but it moved slowly.
