![]() ![]() ![]() Sensing a mystery, Roy starts to trail the mystery runner – a chase that will introduce him to many weird Floridian creatures: potty-trained alligators, cute burrowing owls, a fake-fart champion, a shoeless eco-warrior, a sinister pancake PR man, new friends and some snakes with sparkly tails. And anyway, it’s because of Dana that Roy gets to see the mysterious running boy who runs away from the school bus and who has no books, no backpack and, most bizarrely, no shoes. Roy’s family moves around a lot so he’s used to the new-kid drill – he's also used to bullies like Dana Matherson. In his opinion, Disney World is an armpit. Roy Eberhardt never wanted to move to Florida. Winner of the Newbery Honor award and a New York Times bestseller, Carl Hiaasen's first novel celebrates the natural world with his trademark wit and warmth. Hilarious, touching and thought-provoking, Hoot is a modern classic, now celebrating its fifteenth anniversary. ![]()
