Book Reviews of Holes
Book Review: A Newbery Contender!
Summary: 5 Stars
Stanley Yelnats...notice the last name is the first name spelled backwards...can't seem to catch a break. This is the story of coincidences! Stanley's family has been unlucky since his great grandfather was robbed and kissed by Kate, "The Kissing Bandit" in the 1800s in Texas, and lost the family treasure...which as it happens... is still missing.When a miscarriage of justice sends Stanley to a "camp" for wayward boys...nothing violet...Stanley's not surprised. At camp each boy must dig a hole everyday. The warden says it's to build character, but Stanley is digging to find the truth.
It's funny,when you begin to see the how Stanley's path will eventually cross that of his great grandfather's. Inserted every so often is a chapter about what happened in Stanley's past so the reader can understand why things are happening to him now.
It took me a while to see the connection, but when I did, I smiled and realized that everything was going to turn out OK for Stanley, his family, and his friend, Zero.
