Hoot

I am reading Hoot by Carl Hiaasen. I'm on page 133/292.

The conflict in this story is man vs man, man vs society, and man vs unknown. Man vs man because the protagonist, Roy, gets assaulted by Dana on the school bus, in school, and by a golf ball. Dana Matherson is the bully of the school. Roy gets hit with a golf ball because he decided to run after the barefoot boy.  Man vs society because it's obviously a human who is trying to stop the construction for the new pancake house, because there are little holes in the ground where little owls live. The owls are only about 7-8 inches big. Man vs unknown because the person that is digging up the survey stakes to save the owls is unknown.

I think that the culprit will be caught in the middle of his act by the cop that is stationed to tat sector of the Coconut Cove. I also have a feeling that the culprit might be Mullet Fingers, the barefoot boy, because he let loose nine cottonmouth moccasins inside the construction site. It also turns out that the girl that cornered Roy, Beatrice Leep, is Mullet Finger's step-sister.

  1. Hey! I think that your description of the conflict is pretty hilarious because the way that you describe the incidents is really humorous, for example "because it's obviously a human who is trying to stop the construction for the new pancake house" XDDD
