Theme:
The theme of "Holes" revolves around the concepts of fate, friendship, and justice. Throughout the novel, characters are forced to face their pasts and make choices that shape their futures. Evidence of this theme can be seen in Stanley's family curse, the relationships between the boys at Camp Green Lake, and the ultimate redemption and resolution of the characters.

The solution comes as Stanley and his new friend Zero embark on a journey to unearth the truth behind the camp's dark history, leading to a surprising and satisfying conclusion.

- "You've got to go down a lot of wrong roads to find the right one." This quote speaks to the theme of fate and the idea that challenges and mistakes can ultimately lead to growth and discovery.
