Prediction

What is going to happen?

I think stanley's gonna find something very strange during the hole digging. It will be very important for the plot of the book. I'm not sure what they gonna find, but some corpses or a big treasure would be interesting. If stanley really finds a treasure, he'll probably keep it to himself. Maybe he will find a talisman or something similar to lift the eternal curse of his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing great-great-grandfather. With this thing he can perhaps wish for something and then becomes famous and successful as he always wanted to be.

How does some characters change?

I think Stanley and the friends he makes in the camp will all change in a same way. They get very rebellious and may try to run away with what they have found and start a new life. A better life. Maybe one of the boys will become a murderer because Mr.Pendanski or Mr.Sir wants to stop them from running away.

Characterization Part 2 Dear Mr.Sachar I am just reading your book and I am stunned. When I started reading I wasn't that impressed. It was quite boring and nothing happened, but i kept reading because we had to read it for a school project. As I kept reading, the story and the characters got more exciting with the time. The book is written very simply so I had no difficulty understanding it. I was able to put myself into the story and felt like I was part of it. At some parts of the story it got a little bit boring i have to say, but thats not bad at all because i was looking forward to the end of the story and i wanted to know what they gonna find so badly. Please see this letter as a praise for your work. You really did a great job there. Keep up the good work. Greetings Marc Aerne 155 Words in Total

Characterization Stanley Yelnats First of all I have to say that it amazes me that his last name is his first name simply spelled backwards. Besides that, Stanley is the protagonist of Holes. He is tall and overweight and also not very popular. He is often bullied by his classmates especially by Derrick Dune. He often imagines how he become good friends with Zero, Squid, X-Ray, Magnet, Zigzag and Armpit and how they beat up Derrick Dune with him. His nickname in the Camp Green Lake is "Caveman". His family is cursed since his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing great-great-grandfather did not carry the old woman up to the mountain with the legendary spring. So he always has bad luck. While Stanley was walking, a pair of shoes had fallen from a freeway overpass, and hit him on the head. A police car pulled him over and took the shoes. Stanley later found out that the shoes belonged to Clyde Livingston and had been donated to a homeless shelter to raise money. Stanley was con...
