Holes by Louis Sachar

I'm reading Holes for book clubs. So far nothing much has happened. There is a boy named Stanly. He did something so called illegal that got him into a camp for bad boys. At the camp you have to dig holes. So far the author is basically just explaining what is going on as you can see. I think that they are digging for a reason though the owner of the camp ( the warden) is the one who is making them dig but "digging to moll over your problems" as the warden says seems a little bit cheesy. I think the warden is making them dig for a reason.

    Lauren, I think you should watch the movie of "HOLES" so far the book a lot alike. maby you, me, and Dairen ( sorry if I spelled your name wrong) could watch the movie and sow some of it to the class.

    Katie that sounds like a great idea. Me and my mom are reading to Kill a Mockingbird and even though Holes and To Kill a Mockingbird are a lot different they are a tiny bit a like. I think this because in holes, Zero is black, and he is thought to be dumb. In to kill a Mockingbird the black person is thought to be guilty because he is black. In To Kill a Mockingbird the story takes place a long time ago, before the Civil war. I wonder what time period Holes takes place?

    In my previous comment I meant to say after the Civil War, not before.
