Stanley Yelnats believes he's cursed—a family misfortune that began with his no-good, pig-stealing great-great-grandfather and has plagued the Yelnats name for generations. When Stanley is wrongfully sent to Camp Green Lake, a boys' detention center in the middle of the desert, he quickly realizes this is no ordinary punishment. Each day, the boys are forced to dig holes, exactly five feet wide and five feet deep. The warden claims it’s for character-building—but Stanley suspects there’s something far more mysterious buried beneath the dry, cracked earth.

As he uncovers secrets hidden for decades, Stanley embarks on an unforgettable journey of fate, friendship, and redemption in this witty, suspenseful, and heartwarming tale.
