Illustrated by
LeUyen Pham.
Alvin Ho faces previously unknown fears when his family travels to China to introduce his baby sister to relatives; the hilarity (for readers) begins at airport security. This series entry's heartwarming moment involves Alvin's idea to grant Christmas wishes to orphans, including someone's wish for a friend. Pham's many illustrations capture the fun being had in Look's action-packed story.
