Customer Rating:
Summary: One of a Kind Book Kids and Their Adults Will Love!
Comment: Both my 10 year old son and I read this book after seeing and loving the movie. This story is wonderful, unique, funny, strange, and heart-warming all at the same time. The story of misfit Stanley Yelnats, inheritor of a bizarre family curse, and his adventures at a work camp for juvenile delinquents will leave you charmed, amused, and delighted. A cast of oddball characters fill every page of this quirky tale. The book keeps the reader's interest by means of its odd plot and colorful characters and doesn't fail to supply a satisfying conclusion tying up all the crazily loose-seeming ends. This book is sure to please kids and parents alike.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Solid read
Comment: While this book is touted for kids, grownups will like this book as well. There's something about the writing style and the story that makes it just as interesting as any "grownup" book. If you buy this for your kids or any other younger relative, read it before you give it to them. You will not be disappointed. The number of reviews this book has gotten is evidence enough of that. :)

Customer Rating:
Summary: 5 stars - Funny and Exciting
Comment: Stanley Yelnats has a wacky adventure that got me hooked. Why does he go to Camp Green Lake? And why are all the boys digging holes in the middle of nowhere? It's punishment and the search for a secret. The past and present are pieced together like a puzzle. The old curse on Stanley's family is revealed and solved in an exciting tale that will keep you guessing until the end. A humorous novel that is also a mystery. I loved this story and read it in an afternoon.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Super Awesome! (A student's review)
Comment: *Spoiler* I wish we could go up to a million stars because Holes is a good book. Everyone should read it. I bet you would like it. I like the part when they ran away.
