Hoot by Carl Hiaasen
4.0

Loved this book. A great story about how kids can ban together to do important things, even in the face of Capitalistic Pancakes. Funny, easy to read, well written, and well-developed characters. Deals with issues like moving, making friends, standing up for yourself, what you believe in, basically doing what's "right" vs. doing what's right. The only small qualm I had was the treatment of the bully character. I understand the idea behind getting revenge on bullies but maybe setting him up and then getting his arrested is a little too much?
