Hoot
(Hiassen, Carl; 2002; Random House; 292 pages; ISBN 9780375821813)
The witty and altogether delightful Hiassen presents the story of Roy, a new kid at school (for the sixth time in his school career) who, in trying to find a place to fit in once again, finds himself caught up in a fight against developers to save an owl habitat. Hiassen sends important social and environmental messages to young readers in a way that is funny, fun, and totally effective.
Ages 9-12
