Karl Joonas wakes up and finds a hole in his favorite sock. Little does he know that an exceptionally holey day has just dawned. On their way to Grandma’s house, their car hits a pothole, they find a rusted hole in the metal, his father has to find a gap in his calendar to take the car in for repairs, and he finds out his uncle loves donut holes more than anything. Karl Joonas never realized that a day could hold so many holes!
