Juvenile delinquent uncovers truth through laborious digging.

If you're keen on stories where hardship meets humor and mystery, "Holes" might just be your next favorite book. Louis Sachar spins a tale that's rich in both entertainment and depth.

Description

Stanley Yelnats' family has a history of bad luck, so he isn't too surprised when a miscarriage of justice sends him to a boys' juvenile detention centre. At Camp Green Lake the boys must dig a hole a day, five feet deep, five feet across, in the dried up lake bed. The Warden claims the labour is character building, but it is a lie. Stanley must dig up the truth.
