Consumer Rating: Carl Hiaasen - Hoot Reviews and Ratings - Rating 5/5   See 6 reviews  | Write a review
Information: Product details
Unfortunately, Roy&#8217;s first acquaintance in Florida is Dana Matherson, a well-known bully. Then again, if Dana hadn&#8217;t been sinking his thumbs into Roy&#8217;s temples and mashing his face against the school-bus window, Roy might never have spotted the running boy. And the running boy is intriguing: he was running away from the school bus, carried no books, and&#8211; here&#8217;s the odd part&#8211;wore no shoes. Sensing a mystery, Roy sets himself on the boy&#8217;s trail. The chase introduces him to potty-trained alligators, a fake-fart champion, some burrowing owls, a renegade eco-avenger, and several extremely poisonous snakes with unnaturally sparkling tails.<br>Roy has most definitely arrived in Carl Hiaasen&#8217;s Florida. <br><br><br><i>From the Hardcover edition.</i>

Who Can Resist Cute Little Owls that Live in the Ground? Read Hoot!

by  Javelina ,  Jul 28, 2005
71 out of 71 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Fun book, mystery/suspense element, touches on some great issues, wonderful style of writing
Cons: None (although hard to find in the library, so popular!)
The Bottom Line: Hoot is a great book for all ages, and offers great characters, story line, and lessons learned.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: After reading Skinny Dip , I wasn t sure if I wanted to read another book by Carl Hiassen, but my co-worker highly recommended Hoot. Considering she had read both books, and told me it would appeal to my love of the environment, I thought I...

What a Hoot!

by  scmrak ,  Sep 30, 2003
62 out of 62 people found this review helpful.
Pros: good clean fun with a message
Cons: some developers and politicians may not like the message
The Bottom Line: Well-suited for teenaged boys and girls alike, Hoot is a tale that gives kids a sense of the axiom "Think Globally, Act Locally."
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Being the new kid in town means that Roy Eberhardt automatically has a bull's-eye painted on his back for Trace Middle School's stable of playground and bus bullies. When fighting back against one overweight assailant gets him kicked off the school...

Woot for Hoot

by  imagine_stars ,  Oct 7, 2004
25 out of 25 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Fun characters, cute plot
Cons: A few minor issues with swearing, punishment for the bully
The Bottom Line: Hoot is cute!
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: What do Florida, fluffy owls, and pancakes have in common? Plenty, at least according to Carl Hiaasen. Hoot introduces us to Roy Eberhardt, who has just moved to sunny Coconut Cove from Montana. This outdoorsy youngster can't quite get into...
