After I have read the book til chapter 30, I read some more. I had read the book all the way til I had finished it and I think that this is an interesting type of book. So here is a somewhat summary of what I had read about this book!
After what we have left off with, we now know that Zero ran away with nothing. Stanley was very frustrated and very mad at everybody, especially himself. He was very angry at himself. The Warden, Mr. Sir and Mr. Pendanski was trying to erase Zero's files so that no-one would suspect that a boy had ran away. But the problem that they could not erase it, instead to hide it tight so that no-one could open it.
Because Zero ran away, a new kid was assigned to replace him. His name was Brian but was called Twitch because of the way he likes to twitch. He was sent to Camp Green Lake because he stole a car. He could steal a car in less than a minute. He never really plans to do it but when he sees a very good car, his hands started twitching and suddenly he would be just behind the wheels driving. The next morning Twitch was given instruction by Mr. Sir about the holes. Then the water truck came. Stanley was still worried of Zero. He stills worries if Zero was still alive or not. Because of that, Stanley sneaks to the back of the water truck and stole the car, driving away with no idea where to go.
As he drove, Stanley fell from the truck. From there, he kept walking, not knowing where to go. He looked back and saw that nobody was chasing him. He kept walking and walking founding food, lizards and creating mirages of his own. He then came across a boat. A boat that had be half dug into the ground. He thought it was nothing, but he just went there to see. On the boat was written a writing "Mary Lou." Then he could see a tunnel going underneath the boat. To see if there was something living in these tunnel, he gave a shout, "HI!" Then there was an answer, it was Zero!
Zero looked like a rotten Halloween Jack-o-lantern. His face was rotten. He asked if there was water and in reply Stanley said that it was empty. Stanley was surprised that Zero was still alive but that Zero doesn't want to go back to camp. He also came across something called "Sploosh," which is a drink that Zero had been drinking, which is apparently spiced peaces. He suddenly realize that Stanley was able to fit in the hole, which is hard to believe since he was a fat boy. Because of those hole digging, he was able to lose a lot of weight.
Zero gave Stanley some Sploosh. Stanley didn't drink too much. It was to good to resist.
Stanley and Zero thought that they would go to God's Thumb. They would try to find what was up that mountain. They would go there or they would go back to camp. They decided that they would go to God's Thumb. As they had their journey to God's Thumb, Zero would get his stomach hurt because of the Sploosh. It slows them down to go to God's Thumb. To make the journey fun, Stanley would give letters so that Zero would answer the word that Stanley is trying to give.
As they kept walking and walking, they could not see the Thumb. They could only see the cliff and to go to the Thumb, they must go upwards the cliff. Stanley had some problems carrying Zero while he was acne from all the Sploosh. They kept climbing and climbing until they had reach the the Thumb. Zero kept waking and kept fainting through because of the Sploosh. Stanley realized that if they didn't find any water on the Thumb, they would die. As they kept, they come across the some weed and bugs. There are sign of water! They found it inside the mud there were water and also onions. Zero also said that he was the one who stole the shoes. Because of the onion of water limit, they were able to live for a few more days so they planned to go back to camp.
They walked and walked until they came across a hole. They felt as if there was a type of treasure. They dug with their hands and found treasure in one of the holes. As they were to get the treasure, the warden, Mr. Sir and Mr. Pendanski came to see what was going on. They saw the treasure and tried to force it from them. Suddenly a family of yellow spotted lizards came out. They all knew that Zero and Stanley would have die because of these. But as morning came, the lizards had no affect on them. It was because of the onions. The lizards hate the smell of onion. As morning came, the lawyer came to see.
Zero knows that the case belongs to Stanley because it has his name on it but he just hadn't told anyone. As Stanley and Zero was released from the lizards, the warden tried to take away the case and that Zero proved it to be wrong. The lawyer saw it and that she was able to free Stanley. Stanley asked if Zero could came and she asked to find Zero's file. It turns out there were no results but Zero was still able to be brought home.
When they opened they case, it was gold and treasure with a total of 1,000,000 dollars. They became wealthy people and that Zero found his mom too. Stanley's dad was also able to create a foot spray from peaces called Sploosh. Everyone became happy, even the other boys were released.
