Overview
A special edition of the bestselling classic, this title includes two additional excerpts - Small Steps, the follow-up to Holes, and Fuzzy Mud, author Louis Sachar’s new middle-grade novel.
“If you take a bad boy and make him dig a hole every day in the hot sun, it will turn him into a good boy.”
There’s a curse that courses through the Yelnats line, and fourteen-year-old Stanley Yelnats IV knows this better than anyone – he seems to always be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
After being wrongfully convicted of theft, Stanley is sent to a juvenile correctional facility called Camp Green Lake. A barren wasteland in the middle of Texas, “campers” are made to dig holes day in and day out, a method claiming to reform the teenagers and help them “build character” …but the Warden seems far too interested in what the boys might find buried in the sands for this model not to have a hidden motive.
Intertwining stories across timelines, blending modern day and folk tale fancy and touching on topics such as racism, illiteracy, homelessness, and arranged marriage, Holes is a middle-grade masterpiece and long-time favorite of readers of all ages.
