WINNER OF THE NEWBERY MEDAL AND NATIONAL BOOK AWARD
ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE'S 100 BEST YA BOOKS OF ALL TIME
The iconic, multi-million bestselling novel. An unmissable modern classic.
'Joyous... Everyone should be reading it, including adults' Cressida Cowell, author of How to Train your Dragon
Stanley Yelnats' family has a history of bad luck, so when a miscarriage of justice sends him to Camp Green Lake Juvenile Detention Centre (which isn't green and doesn't have a lake), it's not exactly a surprise.
Every day he and the other inmates are told to dig a hole each, five foot wide by five foot deep, reporting anything they find. Why? The evil warden claims that it builds character, but this is a lie. It’s up to Stanley to dig up the truth.
A masterpiece of storytelling that combines sly humour with irresistible, page-turning writing.
CONTAINS EXCLUSIVE NEW MATERIAL FROM THE AUTHOR, PLUS A FOREWORD FROM PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR PHIL EARLE AND READING GROUP NOTES
'A witty, moving read that grabs you and never lets up' Daily Telegraph
