In "Holes" by Louis Sachar, the character X-Ray wanted the shortest shovel because it was easier for him to dig with, given his smaller stature. He believed that having a shorter shovel would give him an advantage in the digging competition at Camp Green Lake, allowing him to work more efficiently. This reflects the broader theme of resourcefulness and adaptability among the boys at the camp.
