Here is the fifth book in the beloved and hilarious Alvin Ho chapter book series, which has been compared to Diary of a Wimpy Kid and is perfect for beginning and reluctant readers. Alvin, an Asian American second grader who's afraid of everything, has started to notice his mother getting bigger... and bigger. Alvin's sure it's all the mochi cakes she's been eating, but it turns out she's pregnant! There are lots of scary things about babies, as everybody knows. There's learning CPR for the newborn and changing diapers (no way). But the scariest thing of all is the fact that the baby could be a GIRL. As a result of the stress, Alvin puts on a few pounds and—in one hilarious misunderstanding—worries that he might actually be pregnant, too!

被喻為如《遜咖日記》備受喜愛又有趣的《Alvin Ho》短篇讀本系列第五集來囉！特別是對不愛閱讀的初級讀者來 說，本書絕對是最佳選擇！艾文是亞裔美國人，就讀小學二年級，膽小如鼠的他什麼都怕。他最近注意到媽媽變胖了，而且還愈來愈胖，他認為一定是媽媽一直吃麻糬蛋糕才會這樣，但其實他媽媽是懷孕了！大家都知道，講到嬰兒，恐怖的事情一籮筐，要練習幫新生兒做心肺復甦，還要換尿布（絕不），不過最恐怖的是那嬰兒有可能是女的！因為這壓力，艾文也胖了幾公斤，而且，因為一場搞笑的誤會，艾文竟擔心起他可能也懷孕了！
