Rating: Summary: Wildly intriguing! Review: Although many people recommended this book as a "must read", I had no idea what I was in store for until I began this fascinating novel. The story that followed in the pages lingered in my mind long after the last page was finished. The author did an incredible job getting into the mind of an adolescent and spinning a tale that is amazingly realistic for a yarn of its size. The plot is intricately woven, and one realizes the genius of how all the parts create a patchwork quilt ONLY at the very end. I have recommended this book to all my students because Sachar takes the mind on a journey that requires deep thought and delivers grest rewards for the efforts. Sachar's masterpiece may be a dark novel, but hope prevails in the end, so that the reader is not so much left in a veil of darkness, but in the mystery of wonder. What a grand piece of literature!
Rating: Summary: The Big One! Review: I like this book very much because it has friendship and humor that left me laughing for a long time. This book is a very good book that I recommend
Rating: Summary: I really enjoyed reading Holes. Review: I like the teamwork between Zero and Stanley (which are the two main characters).This book would make a good present for eveyone.If you don't like fat books your missing out on a good one.
Rating: Summary: An excellent page-turner, never boring! Review: I definitley reccomend it
Rating: Summary: Super Book for Kids! Review: I read this as a read-aloud to my sixth grade students. They were completely engulfed with the story of Stanley and his adventures. My students never wanted me to stop. The way the story unfolds, catches everyone's attention. The entire class had a huge, "AH-HA!" at the end of the book. This is a great book, just ask my students!
Rating: Summary: This was the BEST book I've ever read!!! Review: My teacher would read to my class every day and everyone was always exited to read Holes,several of my class mates bought the book including me!! I can't wait until I get it because then I will read it every day!!!! I don't think there is a better book I will ever read!!! THAT'S A FACT!!!I am from Batavia Elementary school and I'm in 5th grade!!!I really would suggest you buy this book, or JUST READ IT!!!It's very interesting and you should just read it for your self!!! You'll love it!! I GUARANTEE IT!!!!!
Rating: Summary: This book is the best one yet Review: Hey everyone out there! Holes is a really good book. I have read many books because of our Accelerated Reader program and this is the one I likes most. I mean what are the odds of Stanley Yelnats coming back and finding that suitcase with his name on it? I mean it's weird but it's a real page turner! If you haven't read it go check it out or buy it! I am positive you will love it if you like exciting and adventurous stories! Hope ya'll read it!
Rating: Summary: It was a good book. Review: I liked the the book because it was exciting that what was going to happen. And at the end of the book it was very slow. But the book was good.You should read this book.
Rating: Summary: TOO GOOD! Review: I liked this book because the characters have creative names. I also liked how all of a sudden they would stop in the middle of the story and tell a story from history.I think it is wierd that they are sent to a camp to dig HOLES.But when you find out why , the story starts to piece together.The camp has a lo0ng history of great people and things.Some of the characters find some unusual things.The Warden is very mean but the other concilors are ok.The other characters are very rough and tough.I didn't ever realy like to read but this book changed my mind.I could go on and on but I dont want to ruin it for you.
Rating: Summary: It was FANTASTIC Review: It was about a boy who went to camp because he stole a pair of sneakers.Every single day they had to dig holes in the desert.At the camp,he meets Zero who helps him break a family curse.At the end a lady came and picked him up and took him home.I liked this story because some people can maybe relate to this book
