The atmosphere is very dull at the start of the book ' Holes ' because Stanley Yelnats is having a miserable life. He has been cursed and is know realizing how bad it is.

The atmosphere is builds up halfway through the book when him and his new friends begin to discover more about each-other. Stanley settles in quickly and gets a Nickname ' Caveman '.
