Synopsis "Hoyos (Barco de Vapor Roja) (in Spanish)"

Stanley es acusado de robar unas zapatillas de un famoso jugador de béisbol y lo condenan a ir al Campamento Lago Verde. Allí, el castigo consiste, además del calor, la sed y las incomodidades, en cavar un hoyo diario de metro y medio por metro y medio, bajo la atenta mirada de Vigilante. Allí, Stanley se hace amigo de Zero, al que, además, enseña a escribir. Esa amistad conjurará la mala suerte que la familia de ambos siempre ha tenido, causada, precisamente, porque los antecesores de los dos chicos no se ayudaron en su momento. Curiosamente, las historias de ambas familias se cruzaron antiguamente y vuelven a cruzarse ahora para recuperar un viejo tesoro, que cambiará la suerte de todos.

Louis Sachar was born on March 20, 1954 in New York. While he was in the School of Economics, he accidentally taught some classes at a school. There, he discovered two things: he enjoyed teaching and he did not like the books the kids had to read. This developed the seed of a writer in him, which over time he was able to and knew how to put into practice. He finished Economics and began to study Law. Meanwhile, he made some forays into children's and youth literature. He definitively rose to fame in 1998 with his book "Holes", for which he received the National Award for Youth Literature and the Newbery Medal, the highest award given to an author of children's and youth literature in the United States. After this, he was able to leave the legal profession and dedicate himself to what he really liked: writing. In 2003, "Holes" was made into a movie: "Holes, the curse of the holes", where he himself took care of the screenplay.
