  1. Chapter 2 of the book Hoot started off with the protagonist, Roy, getting on the bus and try to look out for the running kid. For the first couple of stops he doesn’t see him, until he gets finds him, and tries to get off the bus until Dana grabs him by the throat, and starts gripping really tight. Roy tells Dana to let go but Dana refuses and makes more cheesy insults. Roy wanted to chase the kid down really bad before the doors to the bus close so he punches Dana and runs off the bus and almost knocks a blond student over. He chases the kid through a golf course and gets smacked in the head with a golf ball and gets knocked out. He is later sent to the Principals office to get his side of the story when he broke Danas nose. Roy is told that he has to apologize for breaking his nose and possibly get a hospital bill. They will not believe that Dana started the fight because no one on the bus will speak up because they are all to afraid of Dana. No one except for the nurse because she checked his neck and saw finger marks on his neck.

    At lunch the girl he almost knocked over on the bus approaches and tells him that he needs to stay away from the kid that he was chasing.

    And that’s my summary of chapter 2!

  2. So far in chapter 2 of Hoot Roy seems to be curious as to who this boy that runs barefoot through yards, construction sites and the woods. Roy seems to get bullied a lot because he’s from Montana, at least thats what I’ve gathered from the reading so far, and he gets called “Cowgirl” or “Tex” and he even gets called “ Roy Rogers-hardt.” Roy is now in the vice-principals office and is getting questioned to why he punched the person who was bullying him and his name was Dana. I’m not sure if Dana got any punishment but Roy did get suspended from the bus for 2 weeks. Roy then had to go home and explain the whole incident to his parents. At the end of this chapter Roy gets confronted by the girl he ran past to get off the bus, she pinned him up against the wall and stated “From now on, mind your own damn business.” The chapter then ended with her walking away and sticking up a forefinger in the air.

  4. Well here is a summary of chapter 6. Well in chapter 6 roy goes back to the place where he got hit by the golf ball. Because he thinks that he can find out who that person was or where that person went that he was chasing after. During Roy's journey back to the wood he open a bag to find 9 very deadly and poisonous snakes. He was then rescued from the snakes to be tied to a tree by a stranger.
