Book Reviews of Hoot
Book Review: PCE Student Review
Summary: 5 Stars
I liked Hoot by Carl Hiassen because it proves that if you put your mind to something you can accomplish it and it's about kids saving endangered owls. The other reason I liked about the book were the characters. They were interesting. My favorite character was Beatrice. I liked this character because she was very determined to save the owls.
I would recommend this book for kids 10 and over. This is my review on my favorite book, Hoot.

I would recommend this book because it is a very interesting book. This book was very realistic which made it even better. There are many surprises such as, when Roy stood up to all the pancake company people to tell them about the owls. All throughout the book there are surprises, which made me want to read more. Overall Hoot was a great book.Book Review: Save the owls!!!

Summary: 5 Stars
Have you ever had to lie about your name? Roy did when a vicious snake bit Mullet Fingers, a runaway kid, while he was trying to save the owls. Roy had to give his name to the nurse because if Mullet Fingers gave his name she would call his horrible abusive mother. Then he would have to live with her again.
This story involves three kids: Roy, Mullet Fingers, and Beatrice, who try to save the owls that live in underground burrows. They have to sneak out at night, plant traps, and face the police and their parents. The town wants to put a Pancake House over those burrows. Pancake House or Owls? They go through a lot to try and make these defenseless owls safe.
I would recommend this book to both boys and girls. I really liked this amazing book because it reveals true friendship and you see if the kids have enough bravery to save these owls. Carl Hiaasen's writing is very descriptive and has received numerous incredible awards including the Newbury Honor Award. I really loved this book and I think that you would too.
