Holes - Louis Sachar

Holes by Louis Sachar talks about Stanley Yelnats who is a really fat boy who lives in America. His father was trying to make the gym shoes not smell any more. One day a pair of shoes "fells from the sky" and they fall on his head and Stanley brings them home. He thought it was a really good fact and maybe for once luckyness wanted to award him. The day after the police got him and they sent him to Camp Green Lake. Stanley was actually happy to go there because, being poor, he never had a chance to go on Campus. He arrived there and it wasn't like he hoped. There were only guys and they didn't look very sympathetic. Once they were finished, also if it was really difficult, they could go back to the loudge. They said that digging holes was to built the character but really the owner wanted to find a treasure. 159
