Holes Lesson Plans & Teaching Resources Collection
Winner of the Newberry Medal and National Book Award, Louis Sachar’s story about a boy with a family curse, and a camp with ulterior motives is a modern-day classic. Holes tells the story of Stanley Yelnats, a boy unjustly sent to a boys' detention center at Camp Green Lake. Stanley endures long days digging five-foot holes under the hot Texas sun with other boys. Soon he figures out that the boys aren't just digging holes to build character; they are digging holes because the warden is looking for something, and that something might be the key to Stanley's family curse.
