Small Steps
Small Steps
by: Louis Sachar
Very, very, very different than the book it comes after, Holes. It follows the life of two kids from Camp Green Lake, Armpit and X-Ray. I liked it a lot.
It is a very different tone than Holes, none of the magical-tale feeling, more down-to-earth.
One thing I didn't like was the ending. It was way too practical for my liking. I was looking forward to something romantic, such as Armpit rushing off to makeup with Keira. Also, Ginny had a large role early on in the book, but was then cast off like she had served her purpose.
