2/10/11 Hoot by Carl Hiaasen So far what I have read in my book Roy went down to Dana’s house his bully. Roy went hanging on a ledge till he reached Danas window and woke him up. Then he got down drop his pants and turned around and mooned. Then he ran away but then slowed down to let Dana catch up to him. It took Dana a while but he caught up to him. When he did catch up to him he was about to beat him but Roy offered him some cigarettes. Dana took the cigarettes and didn’t beat him up. Than Dana want to go get the cigarettes and he got rattraps clipped on to his shoes. Then a man named curly came out of his trailer to find Dana on the floor. When he found him on the floor he was about to call the cops but he didn’t. So Dana ran away but then a cop named officer delinko was passing by. And he saw a kid running so he got out of his cop car and ran after him. When he got him he threw him in to his cop car and took him away.

Roy is the main character in the story. He is funny and he was good friends. Also he is a good friend right back to them. When Beatrice didn’t have a place to stay Roy let her stay under his bed over night. He is courage’s and he stands up for what is right. What he stood up for were the owls. Also he is tricky so he wouldn’t get beat up he lied about cigarettes.

I like the book so far because it’s funny and it shows people to stand up for what you think is right. The way that is book is funny that Dana got chased around by and cop and got arrested and I thought that was pretty funny. Also this book can get confusing at times. Like at the hospital seen I didn’t know what was happening. So then I reread it and now I get it. Then he got taken down by a cop and that were I ended reading

// Anthony, I'm glad you chose to finish reading your book club book. Nice entry. Please make sure you proof read to make sure you capitalize character names, use punctuation correctly, and avoid frament/run-on sentences! -Miss Bond //

Now in my book Dana got beaten up by a cop. Then he got took to the back of the cop car. After that the next morning Roy went to go hangout with garret. And they talked about how many times Dana has been arrested and why. One of the reasons why he got arrested by the cop was because he stole some person’s purse. But now like he was gotten in trouble a lot he went to prison for little people. So Roy was happy because he wouldn’t have to be scared of being beat up anymore. So then after that they went down to the skate park. Back at mother Paula’s curly was telling his wife mother in law about the chase with Dana. He said that he that Dana was a lot larger. Also that they sprinted and that they were neck to neck and that he won the race. Then he went to go look for his 38 revolver. But he didn’t find it. But he kept on looking and then he found his trucks. And he noticed that the seats were missing. Mullet fingers is a big part of the story. He gets help from Roy to try to save the owls. He has a real name but won’t tell anyone so that makes him mysteries. Also, just like Roy he stands up for what he believes in. He knows how to take care and protect himself. So he could live by himself with no problem. He sleeps in a ice cream truck but it’s not used any more.

I like the book HOOT. It’s funny and also fun to read. The part that I think is the funniest Is when Dana had the rat traps on his shoes. Another good part was when Garrett told Roy about what happened to Dana when he got arrested. Also, I like that don’t have an Idea about what is going to happen next in the book. So its kind off suspenseful in a good way. What has happen in my book is that Beatrice fell down stairs and broke a tooth. Before that Roy spent the whole day looking for her. Then curly had to call chuck muckel and tell him the good and the bad news. Curly told chuck the good news first about how he took down Dana. Then he told him the bad news about the seats missing but he didn’t get mad. Curly told him the he ordered the new seats for the tractors. They would be able to get back and working on Wednesday. Also, chuck was happy with the work that curly did. When officer delinko got back to the police station he told them that he caught the mother Paula bandit. So they took him off of desk duty. When Roy found out that Dana went to jail he felt a little bad but was also happy that he wouldn’t be a punching bag anymore. Also Roy still doesn’t know mullet fingers real name and Beatrice won’t tell him. So that’s pretty mysterious and creepy.
