Book Review- Award Winner

Chapter book for forth to sixth graders. "Holes," by Louis Sachar. A Newbery Winner. If your child has seen the movie then have them read the book. Or visa versa. This book is about Stanley, a boy who is sent to an all boy's reform camp. It was that or jail. He chooses Camp Green Lake, a place where Stanley finds out you have to dig holes day after day. And since there is no lake there you can't even take a cold dip after a hard days work. All this digging is supposed build character. But Stanley thinks there is more than meets the eye about that. A very interesting book, which delves deep into the shadowy recesses of the human mind.
