Holes Series

This series plunges into the world of unjustly accused youths forced to dig endless holes at a harsh desert detention center. What begins as seemingly senseless punishment soon unfolds into a thrilling quest for a long-lost treasure and the unraveling of a mystery connecting past and present. It's a tale of friendship, resilience, and the search for redemption against all odds, where every shovel of dirt unearths another piece of the puzzle. Genuine humor and dark irony give the narrative its unique edge.

    Stanley Yelnats lebt unter einem Fluch, der seit seinem Urgroßvater auf der Familie lastet: er ist zur falschen Zeit am falschen Ort. So ist es auch nicht verwunderlich, dass er in ein Lager für jugendliche Straftäter geschickt wird, obwohl er unschuldig ist. Camp Green Lake heißt das Lager, doch einen See hat es dort seit über 100 Jahren nicht mehr gegeben. Jeden Tag müssen die Jungen ein Loch von 1,50 m Tiefe in den Boden des ehemaligen Sees graben - das soll angeblich Charaktertraining sein. Schon bald merkt Stanley, dass es der Lagerverwalterin nicht um Charaktertraining geht. Eine surrealistische Märchenwelt und harten Realismus vereint der Autor in diesem faszinierenden Werk, in dem auch Freundschaft und menschliche Solidarität ihren Platz haben. Abiturempfehlung zu den Themenbereichen Crime und Growing up
