He dug his shovel into the dirt. It couldn't always be this hot, he thought. Surely it got cooler in December. Maybe then they froze. He dug his shovel into the dirt. His skin had gotten tougher. It didn't hurt so much to hold the shovel. As he drank from his canteen he looked up at the sky. A cloud had appeared earlier in the day. It wasthe first cloud he could remember seeing since coming to Camp Green Lake. He and the other boys had been watching it all day, hoping it would move in front of the sun. Occasionally it got close, but it was just teasing them. His hole was waist deep. He dug his shovel into the dirt. As he dumped it out, he thought he sawsomething glisten as it fell onto the dirt pile. Whatever it was, it was quickly buried. Stanley stared at the pile a moment, unsure if he'd even...

occurred to him that he couldn't remember the last time he felt happiness. It wasn't just being sent toCamp Green Lake that had made his life miserable. Before that he'd been unhappy at school, where hehad no friends, and bullies like Derrick Dunne picked on him. No one liked him, and the truth was, hedidn't especially like himself.

When the shoes first fell from the sky, he remembered thinking that destiny had struck him. Now, hethought so again. It was more than a coincidence. It had to be destiny.

They could fill the sack with onions, and the threejars with water. And he had his canteen as well.
