Analysis of ''Holes''

Hi, eveyone! I've finished the book. Finally I will be able to finish my homework. Homeworks are usually to revise what you learned, but this time I learned something that I can't learn at school enjoyable. (e.d. I learned how to prepare a blog site) Maybe, I can continue to write my blog after this homework.

If we come back to our theme, I will end my school assignment with an analysis of the book ''Holes''.


The first thing I want to write about the book is that the plot is very well chosen. To be sent to a camp as a punishment for a crime that he didn't commit is not a usual event, but it's not impossible, too.


Secondly, I want to say Louis Sachar is a very successful author. He plans the connection between the characters very well. This makes the book fascinating. And it makes you always suppose what to be next, but usually you are given a surprise. So the book is unpredictable. For example, if Stanley's great-grandfather hadn't been robbed, Stanley couldn't know God's Thumb and where to go after running away from Camp Green Lake.


Thirdly, the flashbacks make the book more funny. They prevent the reader from getting bored.
Another advantage of flashbacks is that they strengthen the structure of the book.


Another important special feature of the book is that the book always teaches you something without you letting you get bored. For example it teaches you how our decisions could change our and other people's lives. Besides, by telling Sam's story it teaches there was racism in the USA but now there is not. There are some other examples but I don't want to make my blog boring, either.
In conclusion, I think ''Holes'' seems first like a children's book. But it is a good novel and there are many things that we can learn from it.
