A middle grade novel by Carl Hiaasen published in 2002. It won a Newbery Honor in the following year.The plot follows a boy in middle-school named Roy Eberhardt and the construction of a pancake house in Coconut Cove, Florida. Roy's father has a government career which forces his family to relocate within the United States constantly. At the start of the novel, Roy is just settling into his new town.He sees a mysterious barefoot boy, and attracts the ire of the school bully as well as the attention of the school's jockiest jock (who also happens to be a girl) just on his first day. Further investigation leads him to find out that the barefoot boy is protecting a family of burrowing owls and is also the one "sabotaging" the construction of the pancake house.A film adaptation was released in 2006, starring Luke Wilson, Logan Lerman, and Brie Larson. | |

Kid Has a Point: A recurring theme in nearly all of Hiaasen's young adult novels. Several of the adult characters are not bad people, but they are too occupied with their own lives to worry about animal rights, environmental issues, or municipal corruption, while Roy, Mullet Fingers and Beatrice figure out for themselves what they need to do to save the owls at the construction site. | |

Endangered Pest: The burrowing owls aren't pests, but they happen to live in a lot scheduled to become a pancake house. Those in charge of the project don't care and have every intention of bulldozing the area, owls included. The only thing stopping them is a kid constantly vandalizing their equipment. The hero eventually realizes that burrowing owls are endangered, allowing the kids to save them through legal means. | |

Took a Level in Badass: In both the book and the film, Officer Delinko spends most of the story as the Butt-Monkey for Mullet Fingers's vandalism, but when he interrogates Dana Matherson, he calmly hoists a miniature (live) alligator out of a bag, and Dana's terrified reaction instantly proves he's not responsible for the vandalism. | |

Dramatically Missing the Point: Roy gets in trouble when he punches Dana Matherson, and as his punishment, he's banned from riding the bus, despite having evidence that Dana was choking him at the time. His mother, not realizing that her son wants to be alive, fights for him to get back on the bus. (Though Roy also suspects that she's just eager to resume her morning yoga lessons, which she can't attend as long as she's driving him to school every day.) | |

Reptiles Are Abhorrent | |
| Hoot / int_e24d2d5c | comment |
Reptiles Are Abhorrent: Mullet Fingers puts a bunch of alligators in the construction workers' outhouses and releases a bunch of harmless cottonmouths*cottonmouths are ordinarily not harmless, but Mullet Fingers tied their mouths shut and painted them with glitter so they'd be easy to spot in the site to keep the project from progressing. | |
