"Thorndike Press large print the literacy bridge"--Title page verso.;Originally published in a slightly different form in New York by Farrar, Straus and Giroux in 1998. As further evidence of his family's bad fortune which they attribute to a curse on a distant relative, Stanley Yelnats is sent to a hellish correctional camp in the Texas desert where he finds his first real friend, a treasure, and a new sense of himself.

From the publisher:
A #1 New York Times BestsellerWinner of the National Book Award, the Newbery Medal, and more than 20 other awardsStanley Yelnats is cursed. It began with his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather and has followed Yelnatses for generations. Now Stanley's been sent to a detention center where boys build character by digging five foot-square holes all day. There's no lake at Camp Green Lake. But there are a lot of holes. What could be buried under a dried-up lake?
