Holes (Thorndike Large Print Young Adult Seires)

Rating:
Summary: What a book!
Review: Holes is an excellent piece of children's literature! I just couldn't stop reading it. Louis Sachar does an excellent job describing Stanley Yelnats' experience at a camp for bad boys. Stanley runs into a bit of problems which leads to plenty of adventure. I was very sorry when I came to the last page. Holes is one of those books that you wish would last forever. What a book!

Rating:
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: Very funny but many strange happenings
Review: You can tell that this is written by Louis Sachar because it uses Louis's funny ways. You never know what's going to happen in a Camp Green Lake in which you just dig holes. The couselors beleive this experience will turn these kids around.It's called Camp Green Lake but there's no lake. Hope you enjoyed the book too!! It was Terrific.

Summary: Strange, but loveable.
Review: If you're expecting another Wayside School book, this isn't it. However, Sachar's usual odd humor is present. My class of fifth graders loved it. They moaned each time we stopped reading and were eager each day to begin. The book also has good messages: keep promises, be kind, and my favorite- what goes around, comes around.

Summary: My 4th graders offered me money to continue reading!!
Review: I read this book at the end of the school year when the kids are at their most antsy. It kept them quiet each time I read. It was a wonderful experience for them and me. I did not read ahead and made each discovery with my students. My low-income minority students were captivated by Stanley and cheered when I would pick up the book to read. I even had one child offer me a dollar just to keep reading.(I kept reading, but didn't take the dollar!) This is a book that reminds me of Maniac Magee. It has a story that pulls you in and keeps you turning the pages until you find out how it ends. It is such a wonderful experience to share a beautifully written book.
