Reddit reviews Holes (Holes Series)

This question comes up on a regular basis. Check the wiki on r/German and also see these threads:

I personally recommend checking out Project Gutenberg. It is really annoying to find that a book that you picked is too hard for your current level of reading if you paid for it. But if you downloaded it for free you just shrug and move on to something easier.

I also remember somebody with a similar question/problem who raved about this book:


http://www.amazon.de/L%C3%B6cher-Geheimnisse-Green-Lake-Gulliver/dp/3407740980/

http://www.amazon.de/Holes-Louis-Sachar/dp/0440414806/

What are his other interests? Might help in finding something he'll like (e.g. There are a ton of Star Wars and Star Trek books for every reading level).

Some popular books for boys that age:

• Ranger's Apprentice series (introductory medieval fantasy: boy trains to be a ranger with his mentor)
  
• Leviathan trilogy by Scott Westerfeld, which is a retelling of WWI where the British have genetically-engineered whale blimps and the Austro-Hungarians use mechas
  
• All the children's books by Roald Dahl
  
• Holes by Louis Sachar, about a boy cursed with bad luck and sent to a prison camp. (Also has a movie.)
  
• Captain Underpants comics
  
  Would also second the Artemis Fowl series (has a movie in the works) that /u/_wednesday mentioned.

My favorite book is queen of the damned its exciting and fun there is also a movie that was made from the book
also another book I would recommend is holes the story telling is beautiful and well written and there was also a movie made from the book that stars Shia Lebouf.

My Favorite Book!

I want this book because the trailer to the movie looks good but sadly they don't have the movie playing in my area so this would be awesome.

What about with the book "Holes"?

Even if I don't win. This book is a must read for everyone. Really helped me look at the brighter side of things and changed my perspective for the better.
