After I read few pages of the novel ‘Holes’ I decided to
write my first expressions.
In this entry I’m going to give some general information of
the book and my impressions for the first few chapters.
To begin with I want to say that I’ve found the theme
interesting since my friends told me about the book.I don’t know much about
what is going to happen but I know their impressions.
In the first chapters we learn about the facility, Camp Gren
Lake, which is a camp for ‘bad boys’.The main character Stanley Yelnats choose
the camp instead of prison without knowing what he will be supposed to do in
the camp, when he asked by the judge.During his adaptation period he made
friends, learned how to dig a hole and how to live without his family.Stanley
is a fat boy so it is harder him to dig.Because of the hard shovel and the hot
wheather he suffered a lot.The most interesting thing for me is the
relationship between these ‘bad boys’.However they are at the camp for
commiting a crime, they have a honest friendship.They all laughed when Stanley
said ‘I stole a pair of sneakers.’Because their crimes are a lot worse.He also
got his nick name ‘Caveman’ , which shows us that the adaptation period is
over.
The funniest part I’ve read is the discussions about which
hole is the hardest.
Well, the first hole’s the hardest.
The second hole is a lot harder…
The third hole is the hardest.
The only 2 questions I have for these chapters is : Why do
they make boys dig holes?Is it really to make them better people?
I guess there is more than I know.Especially after Stanley
found the gold tube I developped some thoughts.
