Poor Alvin. Here are some things he is afraid of: trains, bridges, substitute teachers, girls, school – in fact, he’s never even spoken at school! You might be afraid too if your siblings left you hanging upside down in a tree. How much progress will Alvin make with his lists and his rules for making friends at school? One thing is for sure, Alvin will make you laugh as he tries to conquer his fears.  (Pennsylvania Young Reader's Choice Award nominee, 2011)
