Holes


Holes


Holes is about...

 Camp Green Lake is like no other camp. There is no lake - it has been dry for the last 100 years. There are no games, no campfire stories, and no songs. You see, Camp Green Lake is a prison camp - a juvenile detention center - and it is to Camp Green Lake that Stanley Yelnats IV is sent when he is mistakenly convicted of stealing. There,he must dig a hole five feet long and five feet deep every day, including Saturday and Sunday. But Stanley digs up more than just dirt. He unearths hidden secrets and past mysteries involving many of the characters specially with the help of Zero . Stanley Yelnats who's surname is spelled the same way backward like this Stanley Yelnats > Stanley.The Warden is a there  main character in these story and she is some how is the enemy of young Stanley Yelnats IV.So you really get three stories in one with this book, but the main theme is how young Stanley Yelnats IV comes to redeem the curse which was visited upon his great-great-grandfather and all the Yelnats family, through the generations, by Madame Zeroni.
