Hoot is a novel written by Carl Hiaasen. The main characters are Roy, Officer Delinko, Beatrice, Mullet fingers, Curly and Dana. Roy is the new kid in town again, but this time he ends up at Trace Middle School and goes on some unforgettable adventures. The story takes place in Miami, Florida, present day.
Roy is the main character of the book. He is brave and smart because once when Roy was on a class field trip he went off the path for a short cut to where the class was going and he found himself near a bear. Roy remembered in a book that bears have bad eyesight and the best way to avoid an attack is to just stay still, so he stood like a statue for about thirty minutes while the bear was there. Once the bear was gone, Roy still didn’t know where the bear was so he stood still for another two hours then his teacher finally found him. Roy is also adventurous. He shows us this when he goes on an adventure to find Mullet fingers. One part of the book I liked was when Roy followed Mullet fingers to his secret hiding spot. I liked this part because I wanted to know more about Mullet fingers. Another part I liked was when Roy found out about the owls and Mother Paula’s All-American Pancake House was being built on the owls’ borrows. I liked this part because I wanted to know what Roy was going to do about it.
I enjoyed the book because I liked the adventure in the book. I also liked the humor in the book. One interesting fact about this book is why Mullet fingers is called Mullet fingers? but if you want to know you will have to read the book. I would recommend this book to people who like a good laugh and a silly sense of humor. I would also recommend this book to people who like suspense. This book is similar to other Carl Haasen books because it has a lot of humor and takes place in Florida. I would give Hoot four out of five stars because I liked the book alot but I dont want to read it again. Out of the other two Carl Hiaasen books Chomp and Flush, Hoot would be my favorite.
