Hoot

I read Hoot, a 292 page book by Carl Hiassen, on saving owls and standing up for what's right. The story takes place in Cocunut Cove, Florida, where Roy Eberhardt just moved. One day, as he was getting his face pounded into a bus window, he saw an intresting site: a boy running away from the school bus, to who knows where. Over the next few weeks, Florida life gets very interesting. A pancake house building site is being vandalised by the same boy, Napoleon Leep. His reason, save the endangered burrowing owls on the property. But, does he succeed or not. Read to find out.
