Summary: Holes the greatest book you will ever read
Review: Holes was the first book I read many times. I really liked the book. It was exciting to read and I loved the adventure in the book that the boys had. I would probably read it again because I have the book. I saw the movie and I liked it because I got to see what happened on the screen. There was probably things in the book that were not in the movie. I would recomend this book to kids 4th grade and up,the first time I read it was in the fourth grade.

Summary: The (Interesting) Review
Review: Holes was very interesting book. I personally liked it because it always kept you in suspense. Also whenever you think or predict this certain thing would happen, then it fools you. Even when you think it's overit just keeps on going. When it gets boring it becomes fascinating. Louis Sachar has outdone himself this time. I think it probably took him along time. They also had funny characters like: Myra Menke, Igor Barckov, Madam Zeroni, Elya Yelnats, and this one is really funny- no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather. Also when you find out the connections you might be confused or amazed. Well it will keep you at the edge of your mind. So find out for yourself.

Summary: A very realistic, touching story
Review: Holes was very realistic. It's a very believeable, but sadening story. In he end it doesn't come out a say who the woman is, but you know it's Zero's mother. I do think that Louis Sachar should write a conclusion to Holes, and tell what happens to the boys at Camp Greenlake.

Summary: A triumphant story for children... and adults
Review: Holes will certainly appeal to Harry Potter fans. It is the type of story where the main character ends up on a quest for self respect, and as a side effect of what he has become, he is many times over the hero. So to be brief, this story is cool and kids will like it.

For a little more detail: The story is very simply spoken, but very well written. Frequent flashbacks (100 years back) provide clues to the fate of our hero Stanley Yelnats. Rarely will the author just come right out and explain why a brief sidetracked story has anything to do with the plot, but each one is a key to a new riddle. And even the riddles are often subtle. Some riddles are easy (Why does Zero keep muttering about Satan?) some are moderate (Why was there 'sploosh' in the middle of the desert?) some are a bit tough (Where is Zero's father?). I believe this method of foreshadowing and interpretation on the reader's part could be useful in getting a child to reread this book and developing cognitive abilities.

To put it simply again: This book will make you feel happy!

Summary: HOLES
Review: Holes,
When i first started reading the book holes it was very interesting.I couldn't put the book down and at the end of every chapter there was a cliffhanger.I rate this book 4 stars because it was fun and it had a lot of interesting facts about Stanley Yelants and his family life.Like the curse that his great-great grandfather gave him.THe book was also kind of sad because Stanley had to go to a juvenile detention camp for something he didn't do.While Stanley is at the juvenile detention camp, he has a hard time digging up the holes due to the incredible heat and the hard, dry land.While Stanley is there at the dry juvenile detention camp he makes new friends.His new frineds are,X-Ray,Zero,and many other new people.Zero becomes Stanley's new friend and later on in the story there friendship starts to build up and shares a great bond with each other.Then,towards the end Zero runs away from the camp, so Stanley follows Zero a few days later.Stanley then finds Zero sitting down on a rock,Zero is too weak.So Stanley helps Zero to reach the top of the mountain, which turns out to be the old onion field. Since Zero is very weak Stanley carries him up the mountain. For at least one week they survived on onions before returning to the juvenile.When both of them return to the camp, they dig up the same hole that they found the lipstick tube. Finally, after digging for so long they hit something.Which was a suitcase that had the name Stanley Yelants.A few seconds later the warden finds them and tries to grab the suitcase from them, but they manage to grab it before the warden could snatch it.Later on, Stanley finds out that the suitcase belonged to his great-grandfather who was also named Stanley Yelants.It turns out that the suitcase had many valuable things inside it, that Kate Barlow wanted to get.
I loved this book and it is one of my favorites, also there is also a movie about the book,but I think that the book is better. The movie also has little facts about Holes.

The next reason I like this book is because all the characters have nicknames like Zero, Barfbag, and Zigzag. The last and final reason I like this book is because it's just a funny, relaxing, enjoyable book, The book may make you cry or may make you laugh whatever the reason you'll like it. Hopefully, you can see that Holes is my favorite book, and if you'll take the time to read it, it may be yours, too.
