Holes

This is an very interesting book that I've read in class and I've chosen this book because it is very a unique book compare to all the book I've read so far. Holes, written by the excellent author, Louis Sachar, is an adventure and mystery book with a humorous touch. The story takes place mainly at the hot and humid Camp Green Lake, a juvenile detention facility where there is no lake, and no happy campers. In place of what used to be "the largest lake in Texas" is now a dry, flat, sunburned wasteland. It hasn't rained there for over a hundred years. Stanley Yelnats had a choice if he would like to go to jail or spend his time at Camp Green Lake,course no one would want to go to jail so he decided to go to CGL.But there's a curse in the family but Stanley doesn't believe in this curse, so whenever things goes wrong Stanley's grandfather would say this is because of your "No-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather'. But can the curse be broke?. The only living plants there were two large trees and a hammock stretched out between the trees. Of course, no one was allowed to lay on it except for the Warden or else they'd get in a lot of trouble. A log cabin was behind the trees and that's where the Warden spent most of her time.The story takes place in the present time but contains flashbacks of over one hundred years ago to explain how the whole plot started. There were five large tents at the camp. A, B, C, D, and E were for the campers and tent F was where the counselors slept.
