Stanley Yelnats' family has a history of bad luck going back generations, so he is not too surprised when a miscarriage of justice sends him to Camp Green Lake Juvenile Detention Centre. Nor is he very surprised when he is told that his daily labour at the camp is to dig a hole, five foot wide by five foot deep, and report anything that he finds in that hole. The warden claims that it is character building, but this is a lie and Stanley must dig up the truth. In this wonderfully inventive, compelling novel that is both serious and funny, Louis Sachar has created a masterpiece that will leave all readers amazed and delighted by the author's narrative flair and brilliantly handled plot.
The yellow spotted lizards give me nightmares because I'm only in 3rd grade.It's wrong that the only reason why they created the camp,to find treasure.AHGGG
its a book about a kid that can go to jail or go to a camp where he has to dig a hole everyday.
A really cool book because it is two stories in one with a unique twist at the plot's end. It is a page turner and good practice for flashback and foreshadowing.
This book is about a boy that is accused of stealing a popular sports player. When he has the choice to go to jail or to go to a camp that will teach him to be better and not to be bad! I liked it but it was not my favorite book in the world!
