In "Alvin Ho: Allergic to Babies, Burglars, and Other Bumps in the Night," young Alvin, a Chinese American boy with a vivid imagination, navigates the challenges of childhood while dealing with his fears. Alvin is terrified of various things, from babies to burglars, and his anxiety often leads to humorous situations. He struggles to find his voice and face his fears, particularly at school and home. With the support of his friends and family, Alvin learns to confront his anxieties and embrace his unique identity, making for a heartwarming story about bravery, acceptance, and the ups and downs of growing up.
