Hoot by Carl Hiaasen

This book is about a boy named Roy Eberhardt living in Florida. Roy encounters many excursions in his new home and school. On his way to school the BIG bully, Dana Matherson, smashes Roy's face against the school bus window. While staring out of the window Roy sees a boy running away from the school bus. The weird thing is he has no shoes! Roy sets his mind to catch this boy, but along the way he runs into some burrowing owls, alligator porta-potties, Beatrice the Bear, aggressive pancake people, and an unlikely friendship.

After reading this book, you should also see the movie.
