Summary: Holes
Review: I thought that the book Holes was the best book I ever read. I couldn't put it down. It's as good(maybe better) than Harry Potter. In case you're wondering I'm a fifth grader in CA, but that's not what this is about. Read Holes NOW!

Summary: A unique, compelling read
Review: I thought that this book was going to be uninteresting and shallow, but I was thankfully wrong. Sachar is an excellent writer with an excellent style. Stanley Yelnats, the overweight underdog of his school, is accused unjustly of stealing a pair of very famous sneakers, and sent to Camp Green Lake, a repulsive hard-knocks camp, overseen by a conscienceless Warden, and arrayed with a huge number of scorpions, rattlesnakes, and poisonous lizards. He secretly thinks that it is the curse of his great-great-great-grandfather, who broke a promise to an old lady, that has doomed every succeeding Yelnats to failure. Together, he and his friend Hector "Zero" Zeroni set out to find the treasure of Kissin' Kate, a legendary outlaw. And the twist at the end is a true treasure to behold. The story of Stanley is well-paced, interspersed with stories from hundreds of years ago, about his ancestor and Kissin' Kate. The characters, especially Zero and Stanley, are excellently-constructed. All the boys at Green Lake are well fleshed-out, keeping themselves isolated and toughened up while subconsciously banding together. With the exception of the creepy Mr. Sir, the villains are never shown as the ordinary kid-hating children's book villain, seeming to be sadistic in general. This book deserved the Newbery Award. Bravo, Mr. Sachar.

Summary: weird, yet good
Review: Its a very good book, if a bit weird. I would recomend it to all book club teachers and students. Would be better, though, if it did not skip around as much as it did.

Summary: Holes is a Good Book
Review: I am in 8th grade and our English teacher read the book to us. I really liked the book because of how it is much more realistic than most other books. The book is very adventurous and it is sometimes interesting too. I believe that this book is a good book for anyone to read, no matter how old you are.

Summary: This is a good book.
Review: I am in fourth grade. Our teacher read Holes to us in class. It was very good. Here is what happened. A kid gets sent to a camp where they have to dig holes five feet across and five feet deep. He was sent there because of something he didn't even do. His friend runs away and a couple of days later he does to. They're almost starving to death when they find a place that has mushrooms growing everywhere. The boy adopts his friend because he doesn't have a home. I liked the detail of the story. I would recommend to everyone, big and small, young and old.
