But there is no lake--it has been dry for over a hundred years--and it's hardly a camp: as punishment, the boys must each dig a hole a day, five feet deep, five feet across, in the hard earth of the dried-up lake bed. The warden claims that this pointless labor builds character, but that's a lie. Stanley must try to dig up the truth. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this wonderfully inventive, compelling novel that is both serious and funny, Louis Sachar weaves a narrative puzzle that tangles and untangles, until it becomes clear that the hand of fate has been at work in the lives of the characters--and their forebears--for generations. It is a darkly humorous tale of crime, punishment, and redemption.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51068075770129,"sku":"NIN9780374312640","price":22.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51415721214225,"sku":"CIN0374312648G","price":5.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51693857177873,"sku":"CIN0374312648VG","price":9.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53677182681361,"sku":"GOR014998222","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0374312648.jpg?v=1786110601","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/holes-book-louis-sachar-9780374312640","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
