Holes by Louis Sachar "Stanley Yelnats and his family have never had anything but bad luck, so it's not really a surprise to him when he is falsely accused and convicted of theft.
Given the choice of jail or Camp Green Lake, Stanley chooses Green Lake because he's never been to camp before. Unfortunately, Camp Green Lake doesn't have a lake and it isn't really a camp. It's a juvenile detention facility. And to build character, the warden, who paints her fingernails with snake venom, has each "camper" dig a hole five feet deep by five feet wide by five feet long every day, even Saturdays and Sundays.

Till sommaren är det ju skojsigt att ligga i en solstol eller i skuggan av ett lummigt träd och läsa … Medan vi skrev Focusböckerna spenderade jag många somrar letandes efter böcker vi kunde använda textutdrag ur. För oss författare var det viktigt att ha med autentiska textutdrag i FoE.
Jag ville också dela med mig av roliga upplägg som jag använt i klassrummet. Jag vet att det finns många senare verk, men jag måste säga att en av mina favoriter att jobba med som läsprojekt i klassen är och var Holes av Louis Sachar.
