Holes

Prompt: In few sentences, summarize what you read.

     Today, I read the book Holes. I continued from what I've read recently. Today, the part I've read that really caught my attention is that Stanley "stole" sunflower seeds. Really, Stanley didn't steal the seeds, but he did take the blame for it. He then got himself in trouble, and Mr. Sir took Stanley to the Warden. Stanley didn't know this, but the warden is actually a women. She had long nails, which she painted with dry rattlesnake venom in front of Mr. Sir and Stanley. Mr. Sir then told the warden about the incident.

     Mr. Sir told the entire thing to the warden. One thing you will learn reading this part of the story is that, the warden doesn't like to mess around... she also doesn't like people disobeying her orders/commands. Mr. Sir told the warden that he thought that Stanley actually didn't steal the sunflower seeds. The warden then basically got tired of the story and struck Mr. Sir directly on his face. He let out a great groan of pain when the dry snake venom sunk in. Mr. Sir eventually fainted and Stanley was dismissed. 

     When Stanley was dismissed, he encountered a rattlesnake himself, but he got through back to his hole with no harm. Then he seen something very weird. Stanley was looking in all his friends holes to see who was done and who wasn't. The only one who wasn't done was his friend Zero. He was looking around because his hole was already dug. Zero said he dug the hole since he took the blame. So Stanley returned the favor by teaching Zero how to read and write.

  1. I love the book Holes! I liked the agreement between Zero and Stanley because Zero can now read and write, while Stanley only has to do about half of his hole by himself. I hope you like reading it so far!
