Alvin Ho Booktalk

Second grader, Alvin Ho doesn’t speak at school. Not one word. Of course, that’s not to say that he can’t speak at all. He can! In fact, thanks to his Dad, he can even swear like Shakespeare, “Get thee gone, thou beshibbering onion-eyed flap-dragon! THY MOTHER WEARS ARMOR!” Of course, swearing can get a person into trouble. And Alvin’s got enough trouble already. He’s having trouble learning to be a gentleman, he’s afraid of just about everything, and now, a bully wants to be his friend! Find out how Alvin Ho makes it through second grade with the help of his trusty Personal Disaster Kit and a friend named Flea in this great new chapter book titled, Alvin Ho: Allergic to Girls, School, and Other Scary Things by Lenore Look, with pictures by LeUyn Pham.
