He's the oldest kid in the fifth grade. He tells enormous lies. He picks fights with girls, and the teachers say he has serious behavior problems. No one likes him--except Carla, the new school counselor. She thinks Bradley is sensitive and generous, and she even enjoys his far-fetched stories. Carla knows that Bradley could change, if only he weren't afraid to try. <p/> But when you feel like the most hated kid in the whole school, believing in yourself can be the hardest thing in the world. . . .<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A humorous and immensely appealing story...Readers are likely to come away with the sense that they've been rooting for themselves too"--<i>Kirkus</i>.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Newbery Award winner Louis Sachar is the author <i>of Dogs Don't Tell Jokes</i>, <i>The Boy Who Lost His Face, </i> and the Marvin Redpost books. <p/> Louis Sachar's book <i>Holes</i>, winner of the 1999 Newbery Medal, the National Book Award, and the <i>Boston Globe-Horn Book</i> Award, is also an ALA Best Book for Young Adults, an ALA Quick Pick, and an ALA Notable Book, and was made into a major motion picture.
