In Hoot the main charcter is Roy he is a young boy that moves alot because of his fathers job.
He moves to coconut cove and has a hard time making new friends. He gets in fights and has to resolve them.
But he is expecially curious about this bare foot boy that runs by them everyday on the bus. One qote that i like
from the book is about the bare foot boy when Roy chases him in the golf coures. "Roy loosened the knot and peeked but he couldnt see what was inside whatever it was felt buky.. Uh oh Roy said Snakes and not jsut only snakes".pg.51 I like this part because it shows how into nature he is and how Roy doesnt really no anything about nature and not being in the city. He soon starts to relate to the bare foot boy and learns many new things.
