Summary: Really Good Book
Review: This is a really good book, it has some humor and is detailed real good. i got this book from the library and i couldnt put it down, i read it from cover to cover. this book is interesting and never has a dull moment. Soon after i saw it and had to buy it, on a scale from 1 to 5 i would have given it a 7. There is one really bad part about this book and it makes me mad is that it ends too soon, towards the end of the book i started reading it less often because i didnt want it to end, but it was hard not to read it. i think this book should have a sequil or become a mini series.

Rating: 5 stars

Everyday at 4:30, each kid has to get up, and get ready to dig one hole 5 feet wide all around, and five feet deep. Why do they have to do that everyday? Is there something the camp counselors are trying to find? Find out in this exciting book, soon to be a movie(on April 18th).

Summary: THE BOOK HOLES......MY REVIEW.....
Review: This is a story within a story within a story. There are many good and bad points throught-out the story. The good points are that the story keeps you guessing and in supense. Also the bad point are that the story can be boring at times and another bad point is that I like when the story tells you every thing at the end of the holes book it sort of left you hanging, I wanted to know more about Zero's parents. Otherwise I really enjoyed the story and the ending was very suprising to find out who the Warden is. I hope that Louis Sachar comes out with a second book and will have many of my questions answered. I hope that other kids will like it the way I do.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book With An Excellent Moral
Review: This is a terrific book! I would recommend it to anyone. Adults, kids, teens, seniors, anybody. It's a very complex book yet very easy to understand. If you follow along and don't forget a lot of the book's details you will find this to be a very fascinating book. A must read!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Josh and Janel's holes review
Review: This is a unique book about a boy who gets sent off to Camp Green Lake. Stanley is a boy in the book who gets sent to camp for stealing tennis shoes. Stanley is unique because his first name is his last name spelled backwards. He meets a friend, his name is Zero, and they get into lots of trouble.

There are many things about Stanley that make him unique. The things that make him unique are he's smarter than the other boys, he cares about his mother more than anyone else, and he didn't do anything wrong. The first unique thing about Stanley is he is smarter than the other boys. He actually cares about is brain. The second unique thing is he cares about his mother. He thinks about her and want she thinks. The third unique thing about Stanley is he didn't do anything wrong. He didn't steal the shoes he just happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.Stanley was just an unique person.

It's an awesome book. It has many interresting stories from past to present. If you like books like this; look for Holes.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Hand of Fate
Review: This is a very clever novel. It shows extraordinary skill in melding together a number of diverse story lines, each of which is interesting in its own right. It contains a number of interesting characters; in particular, Stanley and Zero as well as Sam and Kissin' Kate.

Unfortunately, there are certain things about this book that rub me the wrong way. Mainly, I don't believe much of what happens in this novel could happen. It pretends to be a realistic novel but a lot happens here which I don't find to be very real. My main problem is that all of the action has a driving force of fate or destiny. This kind of active destiny is just not something I believe in and so it interfered with my enjoyment of the book.

Don't misunderstand: this is a very good book and well worth the read. For me, however, it will never be one of the best of the Newbery winners.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Very Good Book
Review: This is a very good book for teenagers. I think that almost any one could relate to it. It has some funny parts, some sad parts, and some hopeful parts. I like this book alot because it is a well written book for young adults. I know that I would never want to have to dig holes as deep and wide as my shovel every day all day!
