The opening of Holes is effective for many reasons. There are more than just a few techniques that authors use to entice readers and I am going to be looking at those that Holes author Louis Sachar used. The first sentence of the first chapter is very interesting as it is a contradictory phrase that confuses the reader and throws them off guard. A boy named Stanley Yelnats has been sent to a place named Camp Green Lake. However‚ confusingly‚ the first sentence simply states ‘there is no lake at
