Billy and the Hole by Jessica Goecke
A boy, a talking hole in the ground, and an impossible request. One day, Billy found a hole. It wasn't there yesterday. But there it was, right in his favourite spot, under his favourite tree. This hole in the ground is no ordinary hole in the ground. For it speaks to Billy with a voice that's cold and hard, like ancient stone. At first, the hole in the ground is polite and kind, and tells Billy how clever he is. And, well, Billy just can't resist his new odd friend and their nice words. But when the hole's requests grow more extreme, and Billy can't always meet them - - Billy will have to take matters into his own hands before his new friend takes matters into theirs.
