Summary: Dig it!
Review: The title of the book I read is Holes. The author is Louis Sachar. The problem is that a pair of shoes fell out of the sky and hit Stanley Yelnats right on the head. Then the police came and sent him to court. After, he had to go to Camp Green Lake and dig holes. Stanley had to stay there for 18 months. I would recommend this book to a friend who likes adventurous stories. I would rate this book five stars.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Holes A Great Book
Review: The book I am reviewing is Holes. The author of the book is Louise Sachar. My favorite character in Holes is Stanley Yelnats because he is a great character. The book Holes is about a boy. One day he is walking home and shoes fall from an over pass. They are a baseball player's shoes and he picked them up and ran home, but the cops got him and sent him to Camp Green Lake. I recommend the book Holes because it is great. I give this story five stars.

Summary: Dig It
Review: My book report is on the book Holes. The author of this book is Louis Sacher. I'd give this book five stars because it's never boring. I would recommend this book for ages seven and up. This book is about a kid named Stanley Yelnats who had a choice to either go to Camp Green Lake or jail, because he is accused of stealing Slide Livinston's shoes. He picked Camp Green Lake. The problem in this story is that Stanley had to dig holes, lots of holes in the hot desert. Read this book to see what happens.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Do yourself a favor and read Holes
Review: Holes is the only book I have read more than twice. It is also the only book my parents didnt have to beg me to read, I did on my own. Holes is my all time favorite book. I like this book because it has all the different types of characters a good novel needs. It has the "new kid", jerks, punks, bullies, and the one kid who is different amongst the rest, who dare not speak to anyone. Holes has a good point to it, it took me two times to read it to know what hit me because it was so good. No its not just about a kid digging holes. It is about an innocent kid named "Stanley Yelnats" which is his name backwards, and he is innocent, but sent off to a Camp Green Lake. All for walking down the street. At Camp Green Lake there is no lake. Nothin but dry dessert, and shanties made into cabins. The kids at this camp arent only digging holes for discipline, but the camp owners are looking for something. I dont want to spoil the fun so do me, you, and the whole world a favor and REAS HOLES!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One Of The Best Books Ever
Review: Louis Sachar is known for books such as WAYSIDE SCHOOL series, THERE'S A BOY IN THE GIRLS BATHROOM, and the MARVIN REDPOST series. His most fine book is HOLES, an excellent novel, with humor, irony, excitement, and fate. The book is a winner of the prestigous Newbery Medal, and it is well deserved.

This is perhaps my favorite children's book. It weaves so many morals into 240 pages including friendship, fate, destiny, hardships, and bravery. The book starts with Stanley Yelnats, an overweight kid who was sentenced to a correctional facility Camp Green Lake for a crime he did not commit. Camp Green Lake is run by the Warden, who is a REAL mean woman. He meets grumpy Mr.Sir and Mr.Sir assigns Stanely to Group D run by friendly Mr.Pendanski. He meets fellow juvenilles who go by nicknames: X-Ray, Armpit, Zigzag, Squid, Magnet, and Zero. Stanley must dig a hole everday 5 feet deep and 5 feet wide. Camp Green Lake is located on a dried up lake in the middle of the desert that reaches scorching temperatures. While the heat and labor take on Stanley, it becomes apparent that the Warden is making them dig to find something. Throughout this mystery, Stanley makes friends, gets in adventures, and it is ultimetly a tale of a boy finding himself.

It is one of the best novels, and is a certain good read. I reccomend it to everyone over age 10 who want to read a good book. This book would be a good book for an assignment as most kids will be delighted by this book. Altogether an excellent book, and great for all ages

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book by Louis Sachar
Review: Stanley Yelnats has to go to Camp Green Lake. He thinks it's Camp Fun and Games. Camp Green Lake is a juvinille detention camp
and they need to dig holes 5 feet deep and 5 feet wide. Stanley
never realizes that he's looking for something, but when he does find something things go really bazar at camp. He climbs a mountain with his best friend Zero while running away from camp.
When they arrive at the top of the mountain they find onions, onions, and more onions. When they returned to camp the dug to find Kate Barlows suitcase full of treasure. I really think many people should read HOLES.

Rating: 5 stars
