Summary: Lissa's Hoot Review
Review: Once I started the book Hoot, I could not put it down. Usually I do not read more than twenty pages a day, but with this book I would read more than fifty. The main character is constantly moving houses in numerous states. He has not experienced as odd events as he does once he moves to Florida. On the first day of school he notices a boy running the opposite direction of his bus. He is very intrigued by this and wants to find out more. One event leads to another until it is too difficult to handle. I strongly suggest reading this book not only because of its exciting story line, but because of its smooth, easy reading.

Summary: TITO'S REVIEW
Review: I thought that Hoot wasn't the best book that I've ever read. The story was about a boy who tried to stop a pancake house from going up because of a rare owl. They would have to kill the owl to put it up. So there is someone vandalizing and Roy tries to find out who it is. Then there is another story about a construction worker trying to stop the vandalism. I thought the story didn't really have point. So thats my review for the book

Summary: Jasons best book
Review: Hoot is a very exciting book. Hoot is a story about a couple of kids that are trying to stop a construction site from building a restaurant. The reason that they are trying to stop the construction of the restaurant, is that their are burowing owl's that live on the construction site and they want to save them before they build over the owls burrows. Again this story is very exciting and a joy to read and if you like adventure books you will have lots of fun reading this book.

Summary: Hoot
Review: The best book that I have ever read is Hoot by Carl Hiaason. This novel is hilarious but still has a very interesting and creative plot. I think that Hiaason is a very good author for anyone that likes a good comedy and mystery mixed story. I would recommend it to any of my friends or people that I know. I used to hate reading, but after reading Hoot, I kind of like it now.

Summary: Hoot
Review: Hoot is an entertaining yet witty children's book. This book shows how one boy can make a difference in his community. I enjoyed this book because it was funny yet was not completely unrealistic. For his first children's book, I thought that Carl Hiassen did an outstanding job. I enjoyed the way he cleverly introduced his characters so that you would want to keep reading to find out what they would do next. I also enjoyed this book because it was very unique in its plot. I have never read a book like this one! It showed much creativity and wit.
I would give this 4 stars because I enjoyed reading it and never wanted to put the book down. I would not give it a perfect score because I thought that the ending was a bit of a let down. Overall, I thought it was an outstanding book!

Summary: Real world issues for kids
Review: Being a fan of Carl Hiassen's adult mysteries, I ran out and bought this book for my children as soon as it was available. Having an 11 year old stepdaughter who reads the Harry Potter novels over and over, I was anxious to steer her somewhere closer to reality. I am not faulting the J.K. Rowling bestsellers and am glad they are getting children to read, but too many kids are starting to "live" in that world, and there needs to be interesting books that take place in a world more similar to a child's day to day life.And this one is. The unlikely "hero", Roy, is the new kid at school, and gets drawn into a plot with an even unlikelier activist, nicknamed "Mullet Fingers", to save a field full of burrowing owls from developers who intend to erect a pancake house on the site. And in the end he learns that a small group of people can make a difference. My only problem with the book is the fate of "Mullet Fingers" but I won't give away what happens here. And I hope that Hiassen resurrects these characters for another book, because I still want to know what happens to them!

Summary: What a great book
Review: This book is one of my favorites because it really takes you on an adventure. This is the kind of book that is hard to put down because in every chapter something even more exciting happens.
A part in this book that shows its an adventure book is when Roy the character in the book decides that he wants to find out more about a very curious looking boy running down the side walk. That's just one of the very exciting parts of the book.
If you would like a real adventure I would advise you to read this book.

Summary: By: Sharon
Review: This was a great book. What I liked most about it was how it kept making you think, like when you thought you had all of the clues and everything put together and you thought you knew what was going to happen next you thought wrong and it was something else. The character I liked most was Roy he had a lot of spunk and was a really bold and yet timid boy, he was almost like every other boy, but he was a little different for a child his size and age and everything he was put through he always seemed to be real brave. Roy was a boy who thought before he took action. When Roy was out with Beatrice's stepbrother at the lake he made me remind of something about my self that we all have a soft spot. His new friends began to show him different ways to open up to life, and to try new things. Not only did I learn something new but also this book showed me an unusual way to reason with my brain and heart. This was a book I would suggest to someone if they are interested in books that deal with little adventures along with a little trouble and mischief to them.

Summary: I liked this more than the 2003 Newbery Medalist book
Review: I don't agree with the adults whining about how this book isn't any good or isn't as good as Hiaasen's previous work because it lacks that "freaky" character. I frankly those readers just want more of the same, and that Hiaasen was carefully writing to a different audience and had different effects intended. It's something to get a Newberry Honor for your first effort that would qualify for the award.
