Adventure
 

Plot:

  Holes is about a boy named Stanleys Yelnats who is cursed with bad luck. So, it comes to no surprise when Stanley found out he had a really expensive pair of shoes in his backpack. He's taken to court and tried for robbery and is found guilty. He has a choice, he can either go to a camp called Camp Green Lake or jail. Of course, he chooses the camp. But what could've been just a normal camp trip for two weeks will change his life forever.

good:

Louis Sachar is a great author and he delivered another great performance with this book. It is an uplifting tail of wisdom and courage and it shows it. Louis should be proud about this one because it has a strong story line and keeps it all together. All in all it's a great book.

weaknesses:

This story I think had too short of chapters. The book had about five or six one page chapters. It still is an ideal read but I just don't get why he could've just left out those one pages.
