2021 Book Review Term 2

 Today i will be showing the book that we read hope you enjoy

1. The name of the book is holes and the person that wrote it was from Louis Sachar.
   
   
2. The book was about these shoes falling out of the sky and hitting a boy named Stanley. And he starts running and the cops found him and took him to court and had two choices go to jail or go to camp green lake and he picked camp green lake. And then Stanley got to camp green lake and then there were these boys named X-Ray, Squid, Magnet, Armpit, Zigzag and zero and then a teacher came up to Stanley and said welcome to camp green lake. And said rules but about 3 days later zero and Stanley ran away because i don't know but they came back to dig one more hole and they find a chest. and then the warden and Mr sir came to the hole but yellow spotted lizards came out of the chest and then 1 day goes past and they are sitting down and the people that came to pick up Stanley. And the warden lied to the people that wanted to pick up Stanley and Stanley and zero stood up and they went home.
3. my favourite character is zero because he is one of the main boy in the story and he went all the way to the end.
4. i enjoyed the book because it was pretty fun to read with my class.
5. the same things from the book and the movie was the sunflower seeds and the thing that was removed was when there was yellow spotted lizards in there camp. 
6. i enjoyed the movie because there was a lot of action and story's about Kissing Kate Barlow.
7.  i would recommend the book to my friends and family because i think they would like it.
