One day when Stanley goes home from
school where he was bullied again, he finds a sneaker and takes it
home because his father needs sneakers. Unfortunately,
it is a special snealer and the police arrests him. Later on a judge
sends him to Camp Green Lake, a boot camp, to "correct his bad
character"....
Stanley has a great-grand-grandfather who is
always called the
no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather because
more than a hundred years ago he stole a pig from a one-legged Gypsy
in Latvia before he got on a ship to America. Therefore the Gypsy put
a curse
on him. And everytime when things go wrong Stanley's family blames the
great-great-grandfather. Stanley's father was a smart boy and had a
lot of perseverance. His name was Stanley Yelnats
III. He
is an inventor.
By the way, they are all called
Stanley Yelnats because if you read the name Stanley backwards....
