  2. The setting of HOOT is Florida. It is unique because it is a good habitat for the owls living in the ground.

  3. The story Hoot takes place in a unique setting. The tropical surroundings make for an interesting backdrop for the barefoot running boy and the adorable burrowing owls. Can Roy solve the mystery and save these feathered friends from their pending doom?

  5. The setting in HOOT takes place in Trace,Florida. It is unique for the story because they live in a small town and alot of conflict and peculiar things are going on. Living in the little town of Trace makes these events big.

  7. The unique setting of Hoot is that it takes place in steamy hot Florida. It shows thatpeople spend a lot of time outside. It has taken away from the atmosphere because workers are working in extremely hot weather and might kill owls by covering up their habitats.

  9. the setting of Hoot is in Florida and it is unique because in just one town is a boy that runs around barefoot on Roys way to school, burrowing owls in the ground, and mysterious things going on around the future site of Mother Paula's All-American Pancacke House.

  11. The setting of HOOT is in Florida. I love this book because of the suspense, excitement, and fun. I think that the running boy will reveal his real name to Roy later in the book. I wonder if Roy cares about the owls as much as the running boy does. I can't wait to read more.

  12. My book HOOT takes place in Florida. It is a hot place so the owls live in the ground to get away from the heat and only the runaway boy knows that.

  13. The book HOOT takes place in Coconut Cove, Florida.It is unique because it is near the ocean,and it is the home to owls.It has enhanced the story because the story's setting is set outdoors, and it is set on the beach.
