This is a great book to read during your spair time. Great for any age. A book about a boy, Stanley Yelnats, who was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Sent to "camp" for his punishment he is forced to dig holes. While the hole digging is said to be done for bettering trouble teens characters, some things make Stanley doubt that. It's also a story within a story. While you read about Stanley, you also are reading a side story about his relatives. Very interesting how it is written and smooth to read.

I don’t know how I ended up with this book, but it had been on my shelf for years. Last summer when my grand daughter was visiting she asked if she could read it. Well, I’m the type of person that believes in censorship when it comes to eight-year-olds, so I read it first.

What a pleasant surprise! I truly loved this book.

It’s a very heart warming story about a boy wrongly accursed of stealing and sent to a detention camp in the desert. Bad luck runs in his family due to an old curse. Now it looks like it Stanley’s turn. But Stanley has a way of turning the tables.

Oh, and as far as my granddaughter is concerned, she loved it!

Very good book. I was happy that the movie was very similar and goes along with the book. Seemed a little young tho. I will be giving it to a younger member of my family.

I love this book by Louis Sachar, about a teenage boy's life. In the story everything comes full circle, with a little comedy, and irony along the way. This book was selected as a Sunshine State Young Reader a couple of years ago, making it a required reading book in many elementary schools.
