But there is no lake--it has been dry for over a hundred years--and it's hardly a camp: as punishment, the boys must each dig a hole a day, five feet deep, five feet across, in the hard earth of the dried-up lake bed. The warden claims that this pointless labor builds character, but that's a lie. Stanley must try to dig up the truth. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this wonderfully inventive, compelling novel that is both serious and funny, Louis Sachar weaves a narrative puzzle about crime and punishment that tangles and untangles, until it becomes clear that the hand of fate has been at work in the lives of the characters--and their forebears--for generations. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eHoles\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\"Wildly inventive.\" \u003c\/strong\u003e--\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\"[A] rugged, engrossing adventure.\" \u003c\/strong\u003e--\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\"A can't-put-it-down read.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e --\u003ci\u003eThe Bulletin\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e★\u003cstrong\u003e \"Dazzling.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e --\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e★\u003cstrong\u003e \"Heartrending.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e --\u003ci\u003eThe Horn Book\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e★ \u003cstrong\u003e\"Brilliant.\" \u003c\/strong\u003e--\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\"A joyful, eerie tour de force.\" \u003c\/strong\u003e--\u003ci\u003eThe Boston Sunday Globe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Louis Sachar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Farrar, Straus and Giroux (Byr)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6\/26\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.35\" H x 5.59\" L x 1.02\" W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780374312640\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kotton Kandy Skies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740848652587,"sku":"9780374312640","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/2978\/5899\/files\/9780374312640_df260e80-b7ee-40ec-b823-199233f9f250.jpg?v=1774819238","url":"https:\/\/2trc11-eq.myshopify.com\/products\/holes-newbery-medal-winner-national-book-award-winner-louis-sachar-hardcover","provider":"Kotton Kandy Skies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
