. . "Linda Walker was a minor character in Holes. She used to be a student of Kissin' Kate Barlow and marries Trout Walker. She is the paternal grandmother of The Warden. In the book, she was only featured once, when she was forcing Katherine to give her 'the loot'. However, she was mentioned to be 9 or 10 years old in the first setting, and to have been 'cute and freckly' as a child. In the movie, she was seen several times, possibly to explain that she was a former student of Katherine. However, despite that she 'used to be such a good student', she sided with Trout when they were taking the loot. Despite having a minor role, she was important in Katherine's life."@en . .
