Description: In his first novel for a younger audience (ages 9-12), author Carl Hiaasen plunges readers right into the middle of an ecological mystery, made up of endangered miniature owls, the Mother Paula's All-American Pancake House scheduled to be built over their burrows, and the owls' unlikely allies - three middle school kids determined to beat the screwed-up adult system.

I liked it. It is funny and it has an interesting view of bullying.
