Stanley Yelnats is sick of digging holes to "build character." He's also sick of looking at his best friend, Zero, and wondering if his intense, overwhelming feelings are joy, envy, or just peak homoerotic attraction.
To cope, Stanley strikes a completely normal, totally transactional deal: he will teach Zero the alphabet if Zero digs a portion of his hole every day. What follows is a chaotic descent into full-body hand-holding over literacy lessons, running away to a mountain together past curfew.
