Summarizer

The last few chapters where about a boy called Stanley. Who has apparently stolen a pair of sneakers. There for he has gone to court and had the choice between jail or going to a camp called Camp Green Lake. Which is a dried up lake and the only shade where two oak trees on the eastern edge of the lake. A hammock is stretched between the two trees and a log cabin stands behind that. He chose the camp and went there in an old bus. A guard sat in front of him. On his lap lay a rifle. When he got to the camp he was introduced to some boys and they shod him where he was going to sleep. After dinner he went to bed but did not have a long sleep. The next morning he got up early and had to start digging. It got hard for him to dig because he had blisters on his hands but at the end he finished. That night he had a cold shower, ate supper and went to bed.

The book holes reminds me of military camp that boys go to. I watched this one movie that took all this boys to this camp called military school, and they all had to everything that the leader says they have to do.  My friend went to this camp once and when she came back she was completely muddy all over.
