Welcome to Litsy!

Probably my favorite adaptation! Kept the spirit of the book, but adapted some things to take advantage of the medium!

And I actually just watched this with my nibling a couple days ago and they loved it!

There is no lake at Camp Green Lake. There once was a very large lake here, the largest lake in Texas. That was over a hundred years ago. Now it is just a dry, flat wasteland.

This moment was coming - I knew it but was still very happy to read it.

Of a novel called „Holes“ I actually did not expect much but I have to admit I was proven wrong. I really liked the background story with the curse. It was quite funny at some points. Now I am going to watch the movie.

I started to read „Holes“ because we have a whole pile in our school and I am trying to decide which book to read next with my 7th grade.

I played Bookdle today and here is the book cover that I guessed today. I forgot to play yesterday.

Remember the rattlesnake venom fingernail polish!?

We really like the well crafted storylines and the sense of wonder. It really felt like an old fashioned story done well. Have a listen to our discussion about it on the Mind duck book podcast ep.35: http://bit.ly/3HkKV8c

One of my favorite quotes: “there is no lake at Camp Green Lake” because they are in the middle of the super dry desert

This book was super popular while growing up and i remember everyone wanting to read it. I still see it in schools today!

Newbery Medal Winner & National Book Award Winner. Published 1998. This is one of my favorite movies and books of all time. I think it‘s a great book to learn valuable lessons from while also taking you on a fun, crazy adventure of a boy under a curse. This book would be great for older kiddos!

Holes by Louis Sachar is a classic story and a great movie... about a young man who is sent to a boot camp and struggles to accept his past and why he is there.

I loved this book when I was younger and think it would be a great read-aloud for older grades.

Holes is a Newberry Award winner

This book won the National Book Award in the year of 1998 - This book is very interesting and is about an individual that is falsely accused of theft and it goes to talk about the past and present of the individuals life. Very interesting to read individually and then talk about with others.

There are so many but I love the Holes movie. It‘s so much fun and close to the story, but also taking advantage of the fact that it‘s a different medium! 🧡

Super cute read about a boy accused of something he did not do and therefore had to dig holes at the detention center. This showed they were looking for something and decided to figure it out

Analese

This story is about a boy who believes his family is cursed. He is wrongly accused of a crime and has to go to a juvenile detention center. At this center he must dig holes to find something for the people in charge. They do not know what they are looking for. It involves corruption and multiple viewpoints.

Stanley Yelnats comes from a family that has been placed under a curse. Stanley got in trouble and was sent to a boys' detention center where they build character by digging holes. The people in charge of this camp are looking for something. But will they find it?

I went to Ladies Craft Night at my local library last night. The craft was learn how to do book folding so I was excited. We didn't have much time so I still have to finish mine but the picture shows what the end result will be. I also thought it was neat I randomly got the book Holes. I loved that book growing up. #litsycrafters

The main character of this novel is Stanley Yelnats who is sent to Camp Green Lake after being falsely accused of theft. This camp is a correctional boot camp in a desert in Texas. The plot of the novel explores the history of the area the camp is in and how the actions of the characters in the past have affected Stanley's life in the present.

#StoryGraph: fiction middle grade funny mysterious medium-paced

Stanley Yelnats is under a curse. A curse that began with his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather and has since followed generations of Yelnatses. Now Stanley has been unjustly sent to a boys‘ detention center, Camp Green Lake, where the boys build character by spending all day, every day digging holes exactly five feet wide and five feet deep.

I only finished this book because it was required for school a decade + ago. You have better things to read.

Rereading a book 20+ years later with the next generation is so fun. I remembered so much but forgot little details that kept me captivated even all these years later.

Is an awesome bop!

Connotation and Denotation

Camp Green Lake is the connotation because there‘s no lake but it used to be in the past but go into a drought and has a big backstory in the book.

The denotation is that it is no lake. Said Stanley

Three days after Sam‘s death, Miss Katherine shot the sheriff while he was sitting in the chair drinking a cup of coffee.

This shows the tense mood from this character doing the action of killing

I‘ve had to read this book so many times not because it doesn‘t make any sense it‘s because it‘s so good especially if you have seen the movie. It‘s about a boy who get accused for stealing a pair of shoes that belonged to a famous baseball player that were donated to a homeless shelter for auction. but instead of going to jail he goes to camp green lake where he is forced to dig one big hole each day. It‘s a great book totally recommend!

I loved this book set at the not so pleasant Camp Green Lake.
