Holes - Book Review

Last term we had been reading a class novel, the book we read was called holes. The book was written by Louis Sachar back in 1998.

The book was about a boy called Stanley, after he was taken to court he went to camp green lake. After meeting the other boys they got to work digging holes. After his friend ran away Stanley went after him.

In the book, my favorite character is Hector, also called Zero by the other boys. I don’t really know why, he just is.

I really enjoyed this book. It was fun to read with the class and I think it does a good job to keep the book interesting. 

After reading the book, we got to watch the movie made after the book. Although not everything was the same from the book and movie. For one, in the book, Stanley was fat but lost a lot of weight in camp green lake. But it doesn't mean that in some parts the movie was just like the book. It was very similar when someone got Mr Sir’s bag of sunflower seeds, and when they passed it to Stanley the bag slipped and sunflower seeds went all over the place. Not too long after, Mr Sir got slapped with the Warden's rattlesnake nail polish. Both were the same in the movie and book.

The movie was very fun because I gotta sit back and watch the movie without having to read. 

After all, I think the book was very fun and interesting, my teacher also asked ‘would you recommend the book’ but I don’t recommend most books I’ve read so I don't know...
