Hoot is such a great book! I recommend it to anyone who has run barefoot to school...read the first chapter to see what that means. The book by Carl Hiaasen is about boy named Roy who relocates to Florida from Montana. He is the new kid in town faced with all the problems about adjusting to a new place. Roy and his new and interesting friends take up the cause to save the owls. Read more to see how the plot unfolds as the heroes take on Mother Paula's flapjacks.
