Hoot book review


 Today is Wednesday March 26,2014. We have just completed another novel,Hoot. The protagonist in the book is Roy, I know that Roy is the protagonist because he is the main character and he is always involved in every situation. The antagonist in the book is Chuck Muckle. Chuck Muckle is the antagonist because he wants to bulid a Pancake House and he is going to burry the owls and that will kill them. The main conflict is the story is that they are going to build a Pancake House on the owls. The resolution of hoot was when all the kids joined hands and would not let the builders destroy the owls home or they would have to destroy the kids too! 

My three favorite parts of hoot were when they found the owls at the construction site. Another part was when they saved the owls because they did not want the owls to die. My last favorite part was when they did not build the Pancake House. My least favorite part was when Lonna was always so mean to her son and abandoned him and now she is trying to act like a good mom to be on television.

If I could be any character in the book I would be Roy because he travels a lot and he gets to go to beautiful places and ride planes. 

Overall this book was exellent because it was about standing up for what you believe in and to achieve it and they had a dream and held onto that dream and now they saved baby owls!
