#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ● NEWBERY MEDAL WINNER ● NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER The triumphant modern classic for readers of all ages, Holes is an unforgettable story of adventure, redemption, and coming of age. Stanley Yelnats's family has a history of bad luck, so he isn't too surprised when a miscarriage of justice sends him to a boys' juvenile detention center, Camp Green Lake. But there is no lake--it has been dry for over a hundred years--and it's hardly a camp: as punishment, the boys must each dig a hole a day, five feet deep, five feet across, in the hard earth of the dried-up lake bed. The warden claims that this pointless labor builds character, but that's a lie. Stanley must try to dig up the truth. In this wonderfully inventive, compelling novel that is both serious and funny, Louis Sachar weaves a narrative puzzle about crime and punishment that tangles and untangles, until it becomes clear that the hand of fate has been at work in the lives of the characters--and their forebears--for generations. Praise for Holes: "Wildly inventive." --The New York Times Book Review " A] rugged, engrossing adventure." --Kirkus Reviews "A can't-put-it-down read." --The Bulletin ★ "Dazzling." --Publishers Weekly, starred review ★ "Heartrending." --The Horn Book, starred review ★ "Brilliant." --School Library Journal, starred review "A joyful, eerie tour de force." --The Boston Sunday Globe

"Löcher ist spannend, romantisch und von einer unaufdringlichen, fein gesponnenen Weisheit." Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung Schon der Anfang ist unglaublich: Stanley Yelnats geht nichts ahnend unter einer Brücke durch, als ihm die riesigen, übel riechenden Turnschuhe eines berühmten Baseballspielers auf den Kopf fallen. Und weil sein Vater an einem bahnbrechenden Recycling-Verfahren mit gebrauchten Turnschuhen arbeitet, hält Stanley die müffelnden Treter für ein Zeichen und nimmt sie mit. Pech, dass die Polizei schon nach dem Dieb sucht. Der Jugendrichter lässt Stanley die Wahl: Jugendgefängnis oder 18 Monate Camp Green Lake. Er entscheidet sich für das Camp. Die Hitze dort ist unerträglich, der Alltag hart, doch so schnell gibt Stanley nicht auf.
From Louis Sachar, the multi-award-winning author of Holes, comes the New York Times bestseller that's been nominated for 13 state awards and counting They got lost. The world got scared. And the mud got fuzzy. Fifth grader Tamaya Dhilwaddi and seventh grader Marshall Walsh have been walking to and from Woodridge Academy together since elementary school. But their routine is disrupted when bully Chad Hilligas challenges Marshall to a fight. To avoid the conflict, Marshall takes a shortcut home through the off-limits woods. Tamaya, unaware of the reason for the detour, reluctantly follows. They soon get lost. And then they find trouble. Bigger trouble than anyone could ever have imagined. What they uncover might affect the future of the world. FUZZY MUD is an imaginative and suspenseful story of the great lengths we'll go to for friendship and family, the mishaps and breakthroughs that are made in the name of science, and the wonders of mud . . . fuzzy mud. A JUNIOR LIBRARY GUILD SELECTIONA FINANCIAL TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR "The children are well-realized characters and agents within their immediate social worlds . . . and] the very fate of the world is at stake." --The New York Times "Holds as much suspense as fuel for discussion." --Booklist, Starred
Tamaya och Marshall tar sällskap hem efter skolan varje eftermiddag, trots att de egentligen inte är särskilt bra vänner. Men de är grannar, och ingen av dem har ändå någon annan att gå den långa vägen med. En eftermiddag genar de genom skogen, förbi det inhägnade fabriksområdet. När det visar sig att skolans mobbare Chad har följt efter dem agerar Tamaya instinktivt, skopar upp en näve lera och kastar i ansiktet på bråkstaken. De lyckas fly, men snart inser Tamaya att allt inte är som det ska. Hennes händer kliar, och redan samma kväll dyker de första blåsorna upp. Chad har inte setts till sedan den där eftermiddagen, och medan Tamaya blir sämre inser hon att hans försvinnande är hennes fel. Hennes, och den där lerans. Vad finns egentligen i marken i skogen bakom skolan? Tamaya måste ge sig ut dit igen och försöka rädda Chad, även om han är en riktig översittare. Trots att priset blir högt, måste hon göra vad som än krävs för att ställa allt till rätta.
A funny, sinister and thought-provoking comic thriller from the multimillion-copy selling author of Holes. If you go down to the woods today ... Well, every child knows NOT to, don’t they? Tamaya is on a scholarship to the prestigious Woodridge Academy and every day she and seventh-grader Marshall walk to school together. They never go through the woods. When they arrive at school they stop talking to each other – because Marshall can’t be seen to be friends with a little kid like Tamaya. Especially not with Chad around. Chadthebully, who makes Marshall’s life utterly miserable. But today, hoping to avoid Chad, Marshall and Tamaya decide to go through the woods ... And what is waiting there for them is strange, sinister and entirely unexpected. The town is about to be turned upside down by the mysterious Fuzzy Mud ...

"The Newbery-winning author of Holes fulfills a need the world probably didn't even know it had . . . for smart and puzzle-minded teens . . ."--Booklist The summer after junior year of high school looks bleak for Alton Richards. His girlfriend has dumped him, he has no money and no job, and his parents insist that he drive his great-uncle Lester, who is old, blind, very sick, and very rich, to his bridge club four times a week and be his cardturner. But Alton's parents aren't the only ones trying to worm their way into Lester Trapp's good graces. There is Trapp's longtime housekeeper, his alluring young nurse, and the crazy Castaneda family. Alton soon finds himself intrigued by his uncle, by the game of bridge, and especially by the pretty and shy Toni Castaneda, as he struggles to figure out what it all means, and ultimately to figure out the meaning of his own life.
