#100 - Holes

Stanley Yelnats has a tendency to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. One of these instances leaves him with the choice of going to jail or going to Camp Green Lake for "bad boys". He and his family choose Camp Green Lake. Once there, Stanley finds out that the boys are made to dig holes five feet deep and five feet in diameter each day "to help build character". Stanley soon learns there's more to the digging than just "building character".

I thought this was an excellent book for the target age group. It was a very quick read, and it held my interest throughout.

This completes The 100 Book Challenge! I'm going to continue the list for the rest of the year just to see how far I can make it!
