Hi everybody!
To be able to write about this topic, I read the first 50
pages of “Holes” by Louis Sachar. First of all I can easily say that “Holes” is
far far better than the book we have read in summer, “The Big Mouth and Ugly
Girl”. It may even be the first book as an assignment which I enjoyed reading. Truth
be told, I had concerns about the book before reading it but the plot was interesting
for me (at least the begining of the plot) and I didn’t get bored. Also the
language Louis Sachar used is understandable. So I could read the book without
any trouble.
“Holes” is about a boy named Stanley Yelnats, who was sent
to Camp Gren Lake. That place is where bad boys are sent to make them better
people for the society. However Stanley didn’t commit a crime. He was just “in
the wrong place at the wrong time”. If you’re looking for a book, in which you
can both get excited and improve your English, “Holes” by Louis Sachar is a
very good option ( or just watch the movie, it would be more enjoyable J).
Beside all of that, there are of course questions waiting for
answers:
Who is Walden?
What are the holes for?
What is interesting for Walden?
What type of crime did Zero commit?
What happened to Elya after he came to America?
Enough for my first entry, I think
I loled to the last pic :D. I found your post very good and helpful, I agree with your opinion on the book.
YanıtlaSilGood job bro! The questions you've asked are excatly the same questions on my mind. I agree with your opinion on the book too.
YanıtlaSilFirst of all, one does not simply post a picture of Yoda on their reading blog. Secondly, I doubt the movie adaption would be better or more enjoyable than the book because a movie can't tell you how the characters feel as good as a book and the parts the author wants the reader to imagine are mostly already imagined for you.
YanıtlaSilMay the Force be with you too.
Your post is very helpful to get some information about the book before reading. The last picture is very interesting but doesn't accord to this entry...
