Hoot is by Carl Hiaasen. Roy Eberhardt is the new kid in Coconut Grove, Florida. He has no real friends, and bullies to deal with. One day he sees a blond boy running. He tries to find out who he is and meets Beatrice. He then discovers the burrowing owls living in the lot on the corner of East Oriole Avenue. The three kids try to save the owls from the evil business people. A cute story, if a little on the ultra-environmentalist side of the fence.
Ratings: 6th grade - 9 out of 10.
