What are the 3 particles that make up everything? Which ones have positive and negative charge? There are Protons, Protons and Neutrons.

Objects want to be “electrically neutral”. What does this mean? There's no left over charge.

Book Review: Holes Book

Greetings Everyone, 

Today I'm going to share with you what happened in the book. The title of the book is called Holes written by Louis Sachar. The book was about people, who got sent to Camp Green Lake, dig a hole every day under a hot sun. My favourite character is Armpit because when he raised his arms up, the others fell down like there was a shockwave. I like the book because It's quite interesting when reading it. When reading the holes book, I thought that the camp only has tents and a house-made from cement with an air conditioner for the Warden. Also, the Thumb God/Mountain is also very similar to the book and from the movie. I like the movie because It's quite similar to the book, however, something in the book didn't put in the movie. I would recommend the book Holes to over 10 years old.
