Life can be a scary thing for many, and death an even scarier thing, especially for Alvin Ho. Alvin's life is full of many dangers which seem to be lurking at every turn, whether it is that second grade history test or certain death by an older, much stronger brother. School is the scariest place of all for Alvin, the place where his voice never fails to abandon him. Because disaster is always following Alvin around, he makes sure to carry his Personal Disaster Kit (PDK) with him at all times, just in case. Unfortunately for Alvin, his PDK is not able to save him from going to his first funeral, complete with a real dead body.
