At Camp Green Lake, Stanley has to dig holes five feet wide and five feet deep. Camp Green Lake is in the middle of a desert, so the camp does not need a fence. Stanley has a hard time at camp. Find out what happens to Stanley when you read this book.
I liked the book, Holes, because it has adventure. I could not put this book down. I also liked Holes because when you thought you knew what was going to happen something else different happened. Holes is one of the best books I have read.
I recommend this book to people who like adventure and mystery. I believe the author did a good job on describing every detail. This book has a lot of excitement and was realistic also.
