Review: Must read for parents and students - Part of this book is already in Collins Cambridge book 6.Book has interesting turns and twists. Parents and students ofGrade 5 and above should read this.Parents can discuss with kids about the book.The way story progress (as per story writing guideline) and how other things unfolds one by one. Review: Reminds you of the things that matter - Louis Sachar's 'Holes' has steadfastly carried forward my strong affinity for children's/young adult literature and the recurring theme of breaking life down to the absolute basics. I relished this story of survival, as I saw it, across stark and harsh environs (because when is life ever dandy in anyone's perspective). In a time when survival has become almost too 'basic' to be grateful for, I loved reading as this book affirmed the importance of a routine, of gratitude, of knowing how to play your cards, acknowledging when fate guides you, guiding yourself through the rest, and standing firmly on your own two feet, not feeling pressure to always sway in the direction of the wind but to stray in favour of your conviction. These are a few themes I took away, not at all eclipsed by the beautiful structure, and smart storyline(s).

Great Book
Even though it had a few parts that were pretty hard to read, it is a great book for kids at age of 12-16.

One of the best books I have read
I won't write much about it as I want you to read it for yourself. The plot is full of bends and hidden connections, making it a perpetually exciting book to read.
