Summary

Bloomsbury presents Holes by Louis Sachar, read by Kerry Beyer

WINNER OF THE NEWBERY MEDAL AND NATIONAL BOOK AWARD
ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE'S 100 BEST YA BOOKS OF ALL TIME

The iconic, multi-million bestselling novel. An unmissable modern classic.

'Joyous... Everyone should be reading it, including adults' Cressida Cowell, author of How to Train Your Dragon

Stanley Yelnats' family has a history of bad luck, so when a miscarriage of justice sends him to Camp Green Lake Juvenile Detention Centre (which isn't green and doesn't have a lake), it's not exactly a surprise.

Every day he and the other inmates are told to dig a hole each, five foot wide by five foot deep, reporting anything they find. Why? The evil warden claims that it builds character, but this is a lie. It's up to Stanley to dig up the truth.

'A witty, moving read that grabs you and never lets up' Daily Telegraph
